Sub-committee of the Committee on Procedure and Privileges: Motion (Resumed).
On a purely prosaic and practical note, I could not believe when I came here that electronic voting, which is in place in the Dáil, is not in place in the Seanad. Perhaps that will be raised at Committee on Procedure and Privileges, and perhaps that is where such matters should be raised. Why should we be second class citizens? Perhaps it is supposed that we are not able to work electronic voting, so we are not getting it but the Dáil is getting it. If so, that is a dumbed down approach to the issue.
