Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 4 March 2004
40 Mr. Crowe asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if all source code and design details regarding a system (details supplied) of electronic voting being introduced in this State will be publicly available for inspection by citizens and computer science experts; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7173/04]
View answerExtensive design and test documentation on the electronic voting and counting system is available for public inspection at my Department's designated website: www.electronicvoting.ie.
The question of providing access to the election management system source code will be examined later in the year when the system, including a module to cover presidential elections, will have been fully completed and having regard to issues such as security and commercial sensitivity.
