The term "special interest" has been used in previous legislation. For example, the term is used in the qualifications legislation. I will look at the issue to see if we can do something about it in the Dáil. The problem in using the term "an international reputation" is that one could have a good, as well as a bad, international reputation. There are dangers in using the phrase. If we were to change the wording used in the Bill, it would need to be more precise than what has been proposed.
