It is a commendation. On the issue of discretion, when a politician, be it a Minister, a Deputy or a Senator, is stopped by a garda, there is a duty on them to be open and transparent. When Members call press conferences on issues, such as traffic issues, I want the committee-----

Has the Senator a question for the Leader?

I want the committee that deals with ethics in public office to ensure that when politicians call press conferences on an issue, they should declare an interest if they have been in any way involved in that issue. They should be the first to come out and put their hands up, saying "I was involved too and the Garda used its discretion", be it Deputy Flanagan, Deputy Wallace or any Deputy.

This is not the place.

That is not the point.

The Garda Síochána is doing a brilliant job. I want to take up a point Senator Mark Daly made.

The Senator is way over time.

Hold on a minute. This is important.

The Senator is way over time.

No. I want to correct the record.

Will the Senator resume her seat?

Senator Daly said that people who make accusations are being targeted by gardaí.

Will the Senator resume her seat?

They are not being targeted. Deputy Clare Daly took a right turn and was stopped by a Garda in the course of duty. She was not targeted.

On a point of order, I think the Senator will know it is not appropriate for her to mention Members of the other House. She mentioned Deputy Clare Daly.

She took a right turn. She was not targeted.

It is not appropriate to mention names.

Senator Keane should resume her seat. I call Senator Leyden.

I thought she was targeted. The information was leaked. Do not defend corruption that has occurred.

Just for the record. The breathalyser test was negative and she was still arrested and was still brought in. The Senator should get her facts right. She was targeted and my concern is that Senator Keane will also be targeted.

Senator Daly, please resume your seat.

The Senator should withdraw the presumption that it is appropriate to handcuff a Member of the Oireachtas after they have not been found guilty.

I did not say that.

That is not relevant to the Order of Business at all. Neither are the comments of Senator Daly relevant to the Order of Business. I call Senator Leyden.
