Seanad Reform: Motion
6:00 am
Mary White (Fianna Fail)
I am sure that many of the new Members, in particular the Independent Members, are not aware that county councillors are the closest to democracy. Senators should study what they do. Our bureaucratic system is hopeless, inefficient and incompetent. County councillors look after the people. They live in the community and look after the interests of the people. No more than us, they are not highly regarded. I appreciate the Acting Chairman's forbearance.
