Seanad debates

Wednesday, 18 June 2003

This issue is very topical and presents an opportunity for us to air our views and examine the complexities and the practical difficulties experienced by candidates of political parties in attempting, as best they can, to comply conscientiously with the requirements of the legislation. The Minister who is unwell and out of commission for a few days has written to the chairman of the commission seeking its views on the working of the Electoral Act 1997 which I look forward to hearing fairly soon. I would like to see a simple, concise regime that is easy to implement for all concerned.
