Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Water Treatment (Abstractions) Bill 2020 and Electoral Reform Bill 2020: Discussion

Mr. Barry Ryan:

Absolutely. Where that will fall to be decided will be in the terms of reference that will be given to the electoral commission in reviewing LEA boundaries. Those terms of reference will come before the relevant Oireachtas committee for discussion and input. The intention is that, ultimately, they will be approved by a resolution of both Houses. There is an opportunity in that respect for the Oireachtas to feed into the terms of reference and the issues the commission should take account of when it is reviewing LEA boundaries.
