The French have several reserved constituencies, including Australasia and North America. If we had something similar, the size of those constituencies would probably depend on the population in each one. The North American constituency might, for example, have three seats and the Australasian five seats. There would be proportional representation in those constituencies and six people might run for the three seats in the North American constituency. It would be the same as if one were running in Dublin South-Central I imagine. What do our guests think?
