Mr. Brian McKevitt:

I will reply on behalf of the commission. On the ethics legislation from 1995 and 2001, we have been looking for review and consolidation of that legislation since the 2009 annual report that fed into the Public Sector Standards Bill as published, which obviously fell. The commission is very much in favour of moving on this. It is contributing to the existing review of ethics legislation, which is part of the overall reform package of the various measures that have been brought in over the last number of years, of which the lobbying Act is one part.
