Camillus Glynn (Fianna Fail)

Is there something inherently wrong with being a member of a local authority? Are they great big ogres? They are the finest people who give the greatest service to the people in the interest of democracy as they have done since the inception of the State and beforehand. This is unfair and I ask the Minister of State to reconsider it with a view to introducing an amendment on Report Stage. It is totally unjustified. I do not agree with it. It is wrong.
