I have a related point. I am keen to know the level of pay for polling clerks and staff. This is something the Department should be in a position to answer. What is the cost to a local authority of losing those staff? Generally speaking, there would be counts or elections on days when local authorities are open and supposed to be fully functioning. Inevitably there will be costs associated with losing those staff. How is that quantified?
