  • Independent Alliance
    Independent Alliance Breda Burke Committee on Procedure and Privileges Standing sub-Committee on Dail Reform Dail Eireann Leinster House Dublin 2 1 16 h March 2016 Dear Breda, As instructed, please now find below the submissions for Dail reform, as proposed by the members of the Independent Alliance. Dail Reform The Independent Alliance is committed to fundamental Dail Reform. We are seeking that power be decentralised. Following the election, we believe there is a unique opportunity to return power to the Dail and reduce the power of the government. We believe the following measures are imperative for true Dail reform; a. The Independent Alliance will not be imposing any party whip, except on votes of confidence. This automatically rebalances power in favour of the Dail, against the cabinet. We would welcome a reciprocal gesture from other parties. If this is not possible for them on all aspects of Dail votes, perhaps parties might commit to removing the whip for certain topics? b. We believe the Taoiseach's prerogative on when to call a general election can be abused and manipulated to suit the Taoiseach of the day and their party, as opposed to acting in the country's best interest. For that reason, we want to remove this unique power and create stability and certainty for the lifetime of a government, thus increasing the work rate. For that reason we propose that Ireland follow the example of many other countries and introduce fixed terms for the Dail. There would of course be provision for an impromptu election if the Taoiseach fails to retain the support or confidence of a majority of the Dail.

  • Statement by Alan Shatter, Former Minister for Justice, Equality and Defence (2011-2014) on Publication of the O'higgins Commission Report
    Statement by Alan Shatter, former Minister for Justice, Equality and Defence (2011-2014) on publication of the O'Higgins Commission Report Shatter welcomes Report's findings I want to thank Mr Justice Kevin O'Higgins and his team for the manner in which the Commission's investigation was conducted, their careful and thorough approach to establish the truth and to ensure the application of fair procedures. I welcome that the O'Higgins Commission, having conducted an independent sworn statutory Commission of Investigation, has concluded that, when Minister for Justice, I took "very seriously" the complaints and allegations of 23rd January 2012, made by Sgt Maurice McCabe through the Confidential Recipient and that there were "compelling considerations" which justified my response to them. (These are detailed in Para 13.123 & 124 of the Commission's Report). Contrary to the Guerin Report's assertion that I failed "to heed the voice" of Sgt McCabe, I also welcome that the O'Higgins Commission found that I had "very substantial concerns" about Sgt McCabes' complaints and that at all times I dealt "professionally", "promptly", "reasonably" and "appropriately" with them. Moreover, contrary to the Guerin Report, the O'Higgins Commission also found that I was "intimately" aware of the relevant applicable legislation, as were officials in the Department of Justice. The O'Higgins Commission also rejects the contention of Sgt McCabe, given credence in the Guerin Report, that in my initially seeking a report from the Garda Commissioner on the serious allegations made by Sgt McCabe I was asking the Commissioner to "investigate himself". The Commission concludes that my doing so was "an obvious, prudent and sensible thing to do" and had I "acted otherwise" I would have been "open to justified criticism".
