POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS OF DIRECT DEMOCRACY IN IRELAND:
1. The ability of citizens to call general elections and bye-elections.
2. Public participation in policy formation, such as the national development plan and health care.
3. The possible reversal of decisions to close hospitals, schools, and garda stations, etc.
4. Public participation in decision-making on how tax money is spent.
5. Absolute ‘free’ freedom of information for all government documents.
6. Restructure national bureaucracy to reflect Irish culture, prosperity, heritage and sustainability.
