Report on Immigration Policy: Statements.

 

I ask the Minister at least to consider my proposal. The Irish abroad who are still citizens of Ireland should be entitled to vote in presidential elections because of the significance of the President of Ireland in the Constitution. It is a sensible proposal. Other states have similar means of ensuring their citizens abroad can take part in the franchise. It is worth considering.
