Noel O'Flynn (Cork North Central, Fianna Fail)

The Green Party is actively engaged in such endeavours itself. On 8 November 2004, Deputy Gormley told The Irish Times that "serious fundraising methods must be found. We are looking at appointing a fundraiser, or out-sourcing it". I also look forward to hearing Labour's views and plans for proposed fundraising and to debating that issue in the House in the future.

If Members are serious about fundraising and if they want the public to fund them, that can be done.
