Keep the Seanad but reduce Dáil by a third

I find myself uncomfortable with being asked to abolish Seanad Éireann on a promise of Dáil reform, by a Government that has failed to implement the openness, transparency and accountability promised in 2011.

Might I respectfully suggest An Taoiseach consider reducing the Dáil and Seanad by a third while also reducing salaries in these houses by a third. Thus saving the tax payer money and keeping both houses to ensure checks and balances continue.
