To ask the Chief Executive to confirm if he has had any contact with the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government with regard to news that new proposals will be announced in respect of the Voting Registers exercise; will he confirm if he has any views in respect of this issue and will he make a statement.
REPLY:
South Dublin County Council have not been contacted by the Department of Environment, Housing and Local Government about any changes planned in regard to the voting register process. There is however a new Register Portal called Voter.ie which is a centrally hosted system that will improve the efficiency and accuracy of the Register of Electors and allow for online registration. South Dublin County Council are currently in the process of changing over to this registration process.
