Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

I support the spirit of a lower threshold to trigger and sanction inquiries. If the Minister accepted some or all of these amendments, it would offset concerns about majoritarianism in the establishment of inquiries. In other parliaments and assemblies, a trigger of one third is deemed an appropriate level to give impetus to the establishment of an inquiry. There is merit in this proposal, as nothing would fall captive to the mathematics of a particular Chamber or committee.
