I thank Mr. Falvey for updating the committee. It is good practice that we regularly revisit the petitions and issues raised with this committee and I welcome that some of our recommendations have been taken on board by the Department. It makes us feel that we are doing something right. If somebody is visually impaired or has a physically disability preventing him or her from marking the ballot paper, what is the procedure for assisting him or her? We may have discussed the issue previously but I am still curious about it.
