It is an issue that arises because the purpose of democracy is to allow participation. Members of the community to which I refer do not have a voice at present. These people comprise 10% of the population and many of them are members of the workforce and pay tax. This is an ideal opportunity to appoint someone to the Seanad who could articulate their views and concerns.
