To clarify, and it is important that the commission takes this into account, it is not just the fact a polling station is completely inaccessible. There are a number - I suggest it is more than 20-odd - that are very difficult to access. There are levels of human dignity that people are entitled to. People do not deserve to be put in position where voting is an arduous process. We owe it to people in this day and age that the latter should not be the case. It cannot be beyond us to have a situation where everybody has the right to access a polling station with ease and go in and cast their votes. I am glad to hear that is at the heart of Mr. O'Leary's thinking as well.
