Register of Electors. (18 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: I greatly regret that this issue is not being taken seriously. Does the Minister of State accept that to get even a resident's parking permit, one must turn up with photographic ID, insurance certificates and utility bills addressed to one's home because the relevant officials want to be sure the person presenting himself or herself is the person he or she claims to be? People have been...

Register of Electors. (18 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: That is the bottom line. I have been asking the same question since I was elected to this House 23 years ago. I have had to report and deal with organised personation in my constituency, not by any of the parties to which I have obliquely referred, but by a more respectable party. I will not go into detail, but the matter received a good deal of coverage at the time.

Register of Electors. (18 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: This issue deserves to be taken seriously but that is not happening.

Register of Electors. (18 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: We should not joke about the matter. This is a serious issue. We elect Governments in this manner. Many individuals are elected by a margin of a handful of votes. This is a significant issue for the future of our democratic process. I have always questioned the reluctance of Fianna Fáil in particular to respond to this issue.

Register of Electors. (18 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: I hope the two questions I asked are dealt with. Why is there a reluctance to grasp this issue? If it is so important and Governments can be elected in this way, why are we still given the same prepared script every year? Why not recognise the importance of this issue and put in place the basic requirements which even a person seeking a residential parking permit must fulfil when claiming to...

Register of Electors. (18 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: Will the Minister respond to the question that was asked rather than his interpretation of it? Will he consider the introduction of a system of official identification? The example I gave was PPS numbers but it does not have to be those. However, it should be a system that will ensure that every voter who turns up to vote is the person he or she claims to be. Will the Minister consider a new...

Register of Electors. (18 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: If the Minister tries to open a bank account, he will find out what the position is.

Aer Lingus: Motion. (24 May 2005)

Tony Gregory: Tugaim tacaíocht iomlán don tairiscint thábhachtach seo atá curtha os ár gcomhair ag Páirtí Shinn Féin, is é sin, cur i gcoinne na bpleananna atá beartaithe ag an Rialtas tromlach Aer Lingus a dhíol le comhlachtaí príobháideacha. Táim glan i gcoinne a leithéid de rud a dhéanamh. Ba chóir an aerlíne náisiúnta a choimeád in úinéireacht an Stáit, agus ba chóir don Stát...
