My amendment obviously overlaps with that of Deputy Jim O'Callaghan and would have more or less the same effect. There should be a specific reference to an elected official. That is important. Unfortunately, there have been examples of corruption in a number of local authority areas so we need to be watchful. It is important to include the definition. I support the intent behind Deputy O'Callaghan's amendment to strengthen the definition of "corruptly".
