I recommend that it should be changed sooner rather than later.
As Deputies, we are in receipt of an allowance that I would like Mr. Coughlan to explain. What general areas does the public representation allowance cover? He need not cover the minutiae. This is the €25,700 fully vouched allowance, subject to audit for Deputies and if they go for the €15,000 lower amount it is not vouched.
