Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Electoral and Referendum Reform: Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government

Ms Emer Connolly:

We know we need as much awareness as possible to get as many submissions as we can, even though we got a good initial batch. As Mr. Ryan said, we are tweeting every couple of days and there have been good retweets of those. We are also launching a radio campaign shortly. We looked into that yesterday to see how we can achieve maximum outreach and we are also distributing posters to all of the local authorities that act as registration authorities. They will put those up in their own reception areas as well, along with creating Facebook posts, tweets and other social media publishing. We will also explore other ways of effectively reaching as many people as possible through stakeholder engagement, etc.
