We in Cork welcome this Bill. I would like to avail of this occasion to correct any false impression that may have been created during the short discussions that took place earlier. The impression seems to have got abroad that the Cork County Council was an exceptional sinner because of the way it selected its committees; in other words, that it was entirely biassed in the selections made because a certain political Party formed the majority on it. I want to say that if that were so—the position is one which I challenge, although such statements have been made here— it would, if you like, be simply returning the compliment made by a certain section of the Cork Corporation. I would ask the Minister to consider introducing a measure similar to this in relation to other public bodies because I regard the principle underlying it as a very good one. It so happens at the moment that a certain political Party, because they have a majority on the Cork Corporation, have the appointment of certain committees, some of them of an administrative character. If the principle enshrined in this measure were applied a little more generally it would be very acceptable in various quarters of the Cork Corporation, because the recent elections proved that those in opposition to the Fianna Fáil Party there secured the largest number of votes. Yet, notwithstanding that fact, not one of them was elected to a position on the various committees administered by the Cork Corporation. I would suggest to the Parliamentary Secretary that he should inform the Minister for Local Government that, in my opinion, this will be a very popular measure so far as it relates to Cork County. I would suggest that he should go further and make it applicable to the Cork Corporation and other municipal bodies.
