The Taoiseach:
There are none committed to but I am not ruling it out in the event that someone comes forward with an idea. We need to review the methodology and model of citizens' assemblies, particularly in light of the last two. We also have to work through the recommendations of the last number of citizens' assemblies and get some traction on them, which is also important, rather than just allowing them to build up on top of each other.
