Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Consideration of the Citizens' Assembly Report on a Directly Elected Mayor of Dublin: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Jim Gavin:
I will let Dr. Quinn come in on some of those points. On the previous point made by the Leas-Chathaoirleach regarding on recommendation 18 and the plebiscite, it is important to point out that throughout the discussions and the discourse that we had in all the sessions, I was very clear on our terms of reference what we could and could not speak about in terms of the mandate we had. The plebiscite is outside the terms of reference, but I felt it was important for me to give a voice to the assembly members. Perhaps Dr. Quinn would like to respond on some of the transport issues.
