James Bannon (Fine Gael)

I support the amendment which the Minister should consider taking on board. Given that the first letters of my surname are Ba, my name has always been listed at the top of the ballot paper. I did not realise there was benefit to be gained in that regard. However, many people believe the listing of names alphabetically puts candidates at the top of the list at an advantage. In the interests of fairness, the necessary changes should be made. Perhaps the proposed random system should be considered.
