The Taoiseach mentioned that a startlingly high number of constitutional actions are under way in any year. Do his briefing notes have further information in this regard? He mentioned a figure of 340 that are currently in hand. What percentage of these cases actually come to trial? More important, perhaps, how many successfully identify a breach of the Constitution in any year as regards either primary or secondary legislation?
