The word “honesty”, for instance. I notice there were some people who criticized that under the current Prime Minister's code it does say that people shall conduct themselves “with honesty”. There's no reference to that now, but surely it's implied. You'd have to be an idiot not to think that you're supposed to be honest, and you certainly can't use that as an excuse--I'll contravene this code because it didn't tell me not to anywhere. That shouldn't be necessary, I think.
