I accept the democratic vote of the people of County Limerick, which was 52% to 48% in favour of having a directly elected mayor. My job, as a Deputy representing County Limerick, and that of Deputy Quinlivan is to represent the voters and the democratic vote they have cast and to scrutinise this matter to the best of our abilities.
