It is clear from the report, which is 30,000 pages long, that people were only required to tell the truth and to do so as quickly as possible. The machiavellian actions of those who tried to disrupt the work of the Flood tribunal have annoyed many people and caused an outcry at its cost. People forget that more than €34 million has been recovered as a result of the activities of the Flood tribunal in highlighting corruption during the years under investigation. If the Flood tribunal continues for five more years and unearths more corruption, it will be doing a wonderful job, not necessarily for politics but for the country. It is important that everyone in the House and in public life states clearly and unequivocally that the work of the Flood tribunal is important and necessary to eliminate corruption in politics which has been prevalent for the past 35 years.
