Electoral (Amendment)(Political Funding) Bill 2011: Committee Stage (Resumed)
5:00 pm
Caít Keane (Fine Gael)
I compliment Deputy Catherine Murphy for moving this amendment in the Dáil and I compliment the Minister for accepting it. It shows an openness, especially since it allows for a decrease in moneys to be made available and I welcome this aspect of it. This shows that when amendments are put forward by Opposition Members, they will be accepted when they are reasonable. I thank the Minister for doing this and I hope the public purse will be better off after the amendment.
