I can tell the Deputy what the current ratios are. In Fingal County Council, South Dublin County Council, Dublin City Council and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, the ratios of councillors to population are as follows: 1:11,416, 1:10,200, 1:10,146 and 1:7,366, respectively. If we were to apply the ratio of 1;4,830 that applies in the rest of the country, the number of councillors in Dublin would increase substantially. That is not the intention, however.
