Dick Roche (Wicklow, Fianna Fail)

The Bill contains rules that were put before us by distinguished personnel whose independence and integrity are beyond question. It is a scandal to suggest otherwise. I welcome the acknowledgement of the integrity of the commission, which was evident in the contributions of Deputies O'Dowd, Gilmore, Curran, Cuffe and many others. I consider suggestions to the contrary to be totally unacceptable.
