So, it seems that we have White smoke in the DCENR - here is what Alex White, reported to be replacing Pat Rabbitte in the Cabinet, has to say on reform: Along with economic recovery we urgently need reform and renewal in our democracy, and in many of our institutions. When trust is lost it is extremely difficult to restore. Some politicians by their own actions have contributed to this shocking loss of confidence in the democratic system. While I believe that a change of government is an essential first step in restoring trust, it won’t be enough. There will have to be fundamental reform in the way the Oireachtas does the people’s business. We in Labour will lead this reform, including addressing constitutional change where this is necessary. Our policy paper details the most radical reforms since the foundation of the State. We will be challenging Mr. White to live up to his word, address how Ireland is being alienated from Irish natural resources and prove that the new boss is not the same as the old boss.
