Ruth Coppinger

Ceist:

988. Deputy Ruth Coppinger asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government further to Parliamentary Question No. 302 of 14 October 2014, his views on the amendment of section 8 of the Electoral Act 1992 to allow for the unilateral granting of the right to vote in elections to Dáil Éireann to all non-Irish citizens in view of the larger numbers of such persons living and working in the State compared with when that Act came into operation.

In the reply to Question No 302 of 14 October 2014 , I set out the position regarding entitlement to vote at elections and referendums in the State. I have no proposals at present to change the existing arrangements for elections to Dáil Éireann.

Question No. 989 answered with Question No. 977.
