I thank the Chairman. I will try to keep my questions brief. Beginning with Mr. Joyce, in his opening statement he talked about there being a lack of sanctions for running candidates and elected representatives who have articulated anti-Traveller views for many years. What sort of sanctions are needed? Does he think those sanctions should be in this legislation? Should the electoral commission be able to impose sanctions? Should they be sanctions which affect electoral funding or what are his thoughts on that?
