Ireland: a parliamentary democracy
Ireland is a parliamentary democracy. The National Parliament (Oireachtas) consists of the President and two Houses: Dáil Éireann (House of Representatives) and Seanad Éireann (the Senate) whose functions and powers derive from the Constitution of Ireland enacted by the people on 1 July 1937. The Houses of the Oireachtas are situated at Leinster House, Dublin.
This year we celebrate Dáil100, the centenary of the First Dáil, which held its first public meeting on 21 January 1919.
Another thought came into my mind reminding me of my young days when I remembered how I used to have laboriously to write on the copy book this sentence: "Experience keepeth a dear school, but fools will learn in no other."
