Electoral (Amendment) Bill 2004: Report and Final Stages (Resumed).
12:00 pm
James Bannon (Fine Gael)
I move amendment No. 9:
In page 7, between lines 23 and 24, to insert the following:
5.—As soon as practicable after counting has completed, the Commission on Electronic Voting shall conduct manual mandatory random recount of the voter-verified records——
(a) in the case of a general election, presidential election, European Parliament election, or referendum, of at least 10 percent of the constituencies collectively;
(b) in the case of a local election, of at least 25 local electoral areas,
and shall immediately publish the results of those recounts.".
