First Dáil Vote of New Term Commences

Finally after months (or at least it seems that long) the first vote to be taken by the Dáil Ministers has just commenced. Its not the worlds most glamorous of bills to be voted on, but it will forever be remembered as the first vote taken by an elected parliament in the Republic. The bill itself is a Constitutional amendment tabled by the President relating to the rescheduling of the election days in Talamthom. The only effect it will really have is ensuring that the current administration gets its full four-month term.

The vote was opened today and will last for a maximum of 72 hours. In the next few days it is hoped by the President that there will be more votes starting in the Dáil Polling Station. Next on the agenda is the Tománn Indo-China Act and the Prime Minister Act, which has now become a constitutional amendment. Tománnachs and Ministers alike can be partially satisfied with the way things are going so smoothly in the Dáil at present and they can be encouraged by a steady increase in interest and participation. With this said though the NFP leader, Vindrus York, hasn't participated for a while and the CPT interest seems to be waning. An interesting few weeks may lie ahead.
