Phil Hogan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

I wish to make a comment. I did not want to bring this unsavoury matter to the attention of the House. However, it happened before. Will the Minister undertake that during the next three weeks he will observe the type of political demarkation standards we expect to see whereby the political head of a Department and the Civil Service will be able to do their business at arm's length?
