I accept that but will just make two quick points. One of the things we could do - it is interesting it is also supported by the Fianna Fáil Party - is to have a complete ban on corporate donations. Let us once and for all separate any links between politicians and business, which would be a step forward. Second, we need to make sure every single recommendation in the report is implemented in full.

People want a new beginning. They want young politicians who are coming forward to give leadership on this so we do not have the kind of perceptions people have of the political system into the future. The only way that can happen is if we make the right decisions now. There are also issues in regard the sanctions and penalties that will apply to those who have been found guilty of corruption. People want to see action, they want to see such people before the courts and, if found guilty, they want to see them jailed because these crimes were not victimless.
