Actions speak louder than words and we have proposed a radical package of reforms for the Oireachtas, which includes reducing the number of Deputies, reducing ministerial expenses and putting a referendum to the people on the future existence of the Seanad. The people will ultimately decide. We also recommend a list system to open up the political system in a way that it has not been opened before.
