PQ 536
532 Mr. Kenny asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the comments of returning officers regarding difficulties in recruiting sufficient staff to conduct the local and European elections in June 2004; if his attention has been further drawn to the fact that the closure of polling stations makes it less attractive for members of the public to vote and, as a consequence, lessens the extent of democratic decision; if he will make sufficient resources available to all returning officers so that no polling station has to be closed without exceptional reason; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
