Episode description

The Electoral Commission has published its highly anticipated constituency review which, as expected, recommends an increase in the number of Dáil seats to let representation keep pace with population growth.


The review, which is expected to be approved by the Dáil, also recommends the creation of new constituencies and the adjustment of others.


But what does it all mean for voters and politicians? Cormac McQuinn and Harry McGee join Pat Leahy to dig into the review.
