I thank the Deputy for the question. We have responsibilities, as Deputies in this House, not to try to undermine the integrity of our electoral process, which is very robust. Getting onto the register of electors is not a simple process and requires a number of steps, including verification from the Garda Síochána. I received the Deputy's letter. I am aware of one incident in regard to one student who was registered to vote when that person should not have been. That does not mean that person is entitled to vote; they are two different things. If the Deputy has evidence of other such cases, he should please bring them to my attention directly-----
