I thank the Chair. Mr. O'Leary is very welcome. I congratulate him on his position.

I have a number of questions for Mr. O'Leary - seven in total. First, with local and European elections being held on the same day, can Mr. O'Leary outline how it is ensured that an individual votes only in the elections he or she is entitled to vote in? Second, has the Electoral Commission had difficulty in publishing information around the upcoming referenda where the wording of said referenda is so vague? Third, on the topic of disinformation, can Mr. O'Leary comment on the Minister, Deputy Catherine Martin's post on X in which she stated that a woman's place is in the home? On 26 January, Ms Justice Marie Baker-----
