The Government's proposals for the Constitutional Convention, including in relation to the selection of citizens to participate in the work of the Convention, have been made public on www.merrionstreet.ie.
I met representatives of the Opposition parties and the Dáil Technical Group to consult them on the Government's proposals and they have reverted to me with their views.
The Government will now consider these views and intends to introduce Resolutions in both Houses of the Oireachtas in the current session to establish the Convention .
