Gerry Adams (Louth, Sinn Fein)

I agree there has to be meaningful consultation. I do not see any way to bring about the type of political reform the Taoiseach has talked about unless meaningful consultation is a fundamental basis.

Did the Taoiseach consider giving the vote in presidential elections for Irish citizens outside of this State? On a matter which I have raised before with the Taoiseach, and which he has promised to consider, how truly national will this convention be? Will it include citizens from the Six Counties? Has any advance work or consultation been held on that?
