Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

I compared this with the Green Party's manifesto which stated it would seek to double the number of Dáil sitting days. This would amount to approximately 180 sitting days per annum. By my calculations, at the rate of three days extra per year, the Green Party commitment would be met in or around 2038, by which time we should be carbon neutral.
