Rónán Mullen (Independent)

There is another issue on which I would like to engage with the Minister. As politicians we are not allowed take donations from abroad, which is understandable, as that provision is concerned with not skewing the political system. There are cases where charities and other civil society organisations receive what are sometimes large sums of money from foreign sources and benefactors. That may be very welcome in the funding of a university by Mr. Chuck Feeney, for example, but what would happen if the funding was involved with the children's rights referendum on advancing a particular policy change?
