Iceland looks to set to name and shame their top 3 maladministrators for economic negligence. "A special investigation committee, known popularly as the Truth Commission, recommended that Geir Haarde, the former prime minister, stand trial, along with Björgvin Sigurdsson, the former minister of commerce, and Árni Mathiesen, the former minister of finance."

"A special investigation committee, known popularly as the Truth Commission, recommended that Geir Haarde, the former prime minister, stand trial, along with Björgvin Sigurdsson, the former minister of commerce, and Árni Mathiesen, the former minister of finance.
It found during an 18-month inquiry that the three men showed recklessness in their handling of Iceland's financial crisis, which brought down its three banks and crippled the currency in October 2008."
It remains to be seen if Ireland will walk the independent path to Sovereignty with the brave Icelanders. Only time will tell.

Think of the human rights that need to be protected when people are homeless, penniless and don't have a pot to piss in. This needs to be in a new Constitution.
