The Programme for Government commits to establishing four Citizens’ Assemblies, on the topics of Biodiversity Loss; the type of directly elected mayor and local government structures best suited for Dublin; Matters relating to Drugs Use; and the Future of Education.

With the publication last week of the Citizens’ Assembly report on Matters relating to Drugs Use, three of the four Citizens’ Assemblies referenced above have now concluded their work and have submitted their reports to the Oireachtas, as required under their respective Terms of Reference.

The establishment of a Citizens’ Assembly on the Future of Education, and its Terms of Reference, will be considered by Government in due course.
