Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Electoral (Amendment) (No. 3) Bill 2014: Discussion (Resumed)
11:00 am
Ms Ríona Ní Fhlanghaile:
It would be better to keep a standard time of 9 a.m. because there may not be a delay. Politicians are the people most anxious for counts to begin and results to be delivered. We could wait a couple of days after polling and until every ballot box arrives to begin but I know what goes on in count centres and members know that even better.
