Fine Gael Cork North Central Deputy, Dara Murphy TD, has today (Friday) called for legislation to be prioritised to ensure that opportunities to work at polling and count stations are given to the unemployed during election time.
“The Minister for the Environment, Phil Hogan, has, in the past, encouraged Local Returning Officers to consider employing the unemployed at polling stations and count centres at election and referendum time. I believe, however, that there is a need to go further by legislating to ensure that Returning Officers are making a genuine effort to do just that.
