Seanad debates

Tuesday, 11 February 2003

Senator Hayes also asked if there were any plans to introduce a consolidation Act in respect of the forms Members must complete when declaring their interests. I had to fill out four forms because of my previous position but I take Senator O'Toole's point. When the Bill was going through the House everybody spoke in praise of ethics and we were all delighted to be part of the purer than pure group. However, now we are fed up with all the forms we have to complete. There should be consolidation because one has to answer the same question on three separate forms, which is a little excessive.
