Political Donations.
1:00 pm
Joanna Tuffy (Dublin Mid West, Labour)
I do not object to an electoral commission. The Standards in Public Office Commission does a fine job and if it were given the teeth to do more it could be very effective. However, the electoral commission is not a Minister, and only the Minister can introduce legislation. The banning of corporate donations is a core principle of his party. What legislation will he introduce in the area of political donations?
