Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

^ General Scheme of Electoral Reform Bill 2020: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Dualta Ó Broin:

No, that is not what I am saying. If the law or the code requires us to check the identification or passport of an individual, we are obviously responsible for doing that. It is the model of oversight that I am trying to make a point about. I am not sure this third party model is fit for the online world. It would seem far more appropriate to set down what our roles, responsibilities and obligations are under the law and that this third party would be replaced by more direct involvement by the regulator.
