Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions

Design of Ballot Papers: Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government

4:15 pm

Mr. Ger Deering:

The answer to that is "Yes". In fact, it is part of what we hope will come out of today's meeting, and the committee's deliberations on this would be factored into wherever we move forward on this. Our opening statement was meant to be more informative than defensive. It was not meant to be defensive of the status quo. In fact, if one looks at how it finished, we said that if there are changes we need to be careful. I would be worried if there was a perception that there is a simple solution to this and that we can simply go into plain English. Any solution to this will not be that simple. That is the message we are giving.
