Apologies, I may have to leave if the bell goes because I am on quorum duty. I had the opportunity to ask some questions earlier and because of time constraints we did not get a response. I want to address again the issue of sanctions. This goes back to what was said about what might happen if a regime was introduced. How do we ensure that we do not go down the slippery slope? What kind of audit would Dr. O'Shea recommend be put in place to ensure transparency and accountability within a system that could be easily understood by politicians, media and members of the general public?
