I refer to an item on the Order Paper which I have tabled and which deals with a constitutional amendment to allow for an outright ban on corporate donations. The Taoiseach indicated yesterday that he was not prepared to accept that. Other proposals in the programme for Government relate to amendments to the Constitution such as children's rights and so forth. Given the timeframe is narrowing I ask for clarification. Does the Taoiseach intend to introduce legislation to amend the Constitution in time for a constitutional referendum on the same day as the presidential election?
