Again, you all are the elected officials. You will know what will influence you and what will not. I know your Outlook calendars look like a diaspora of colour because you have so many meetings. If you did not have food at these receptions, you probably wouldn't eat, which.... That's bad.
What I would tell you is that this $80 amount is a little bit random in nature. I'm not quite sure that there's any rational connection between it and the average contribution as asserted by Mr. Conacher. I don't know why they picked $80, but Mr. Conacher is correct when he says that the conflict of interest commissioner has a different number. That's bad. We need to pick one and stick to it.
