Electoral (Amendment)(Political Funding) Bill 2011: Committee Stage
1:00 pm
David Norris (Independent)
I am a professional politician, as are we all in this House, including the Independents appointed by his Government. Why does the Government not permit election expenses to be allowable against tax, as a business expense? They are a business expense. We are in the business of politics. That is the kind of thing that improves political life.
