Fergus O'Dowd (Louth, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the urgent need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to make a special difficulty order under the Electoral Act 1992 to extend the voter registration period beyond 25 November 2006 to enable thousands of disenfranchised voters to register with their local authorities.
