Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I tell you lads, if you want to have a long debate sometime over what happened over the years we can do that but it is not for today. This process has been flawed and will now be fixed. I want to see a situation where people in our country, wherever they come from, who want to serve on boards and do public duty can do so without being branded because of the flawed process. They should be allowed to do their job so we will fix that and make the process absolutely transparent and accountable with an external examination of credentials. We will move on from there.
