Electoral (Amendment) Bill 2005: Committee and Remaining Stages.
4:00 pm
Joe McHugh (Fine Gael)
Senator Mooney made some valid points. I have an interest in this as well because in 1969, part of Leitrim was in part of Donegal South. I have done some study of this matter. Regarding the Minister's own constituency, in 1921, Kildare and Wicklow were one constituency but as a general trend there has not been much movement. In fairness to the case made for Leitrim, however, Leitrim has been bandied about, so to speak, going from Roscommon to Sligo to Donegal.
