Much of the media spin of recent weeks about the resignation of Mr. Justice Flood has been clarified in his letter to the Taoiseach, which the Minister read to the House. The Minister also clarified a number of other inaccuracies that were being circulated for the benefit of public consumption and which suggested some inappropriate behaviour by the Government in frustrating the tribunals. Clearly that is untrue. These tribunals were established by the Houses of the Oireachtas and there is an onus on us to support them. If we have to bring forward legislation to amend the workings of the tribunals, let us do so but with the common objective that what we want at the end of the day is a better standard of public life in this country, where there is no tolerance or acceptance of anyone who abuses their position and, if that happens, that there will not be any cover-up or protection. That is the responsibility of all Members of the Oireachtas. I wish Judge Mahon well in his endeavours and I fully support the resolution before the House.
