Electoral (Amendment)(Political Funding) Bill 2011: Committee Stage

 

I hope the Fianna Fáil Senators in proposing €100 are acknowledging the appropriateness of the principle of the Bill. I believe Senator Power was quite satisfied with the principle. While one can pick a figure of €100 or €200 to deal with some of the practical administrative issues I am speaking about, I do not want to be in a position where people as corporate entities, or the local shopkeeper in a small town who wants to donate a sum for political purposes, would in any way have to be registered or tied up in the administration of this legislation.
