How can we be assured that the Electoral Commission will not, in practice, establish a caste system where Ministers and their cronies in the mainstream media will be free to tell untruths or misinformation while minority viewpoints will be censored? Those are my questions to Mr. O'Leary. I hope he will ask them because the Electoral Commission will play an important role in democracy in this country. I do not underestimate that. I want to make sure Mr. O'Leary has democracy in the palm of his hand and that he is going to mind that democracy and guard it with his life.
