Perhaps the Minister of State could offer some clarification. I am in complete agreement with the Minister of State about the international obligations we would rightly have in this regard. It would clearly be a safeguarding of children to have inappropriate financial donations forbidden by our legislation. Is permission required for each and every donation or can they get on with legitimate fund-raising events which could be anything from selling tickets or holding sales of work? Would prior approval be required or is this just to cover anonymous donations?
