Oireachtas edit

7 Oct 1937
  • Dev : The Constitution prescribes that not more than 11 and not less than five members are to be selected from each of the panels. The first explanation that should be given is that the number for the educational panel is put at five, because we consider the six that will be chosen from the universities would be largely from a class belonging to that panel. There is no necessity, I think, to justify giving 11 to the greatest industry in the country. That is the greatest number and it is given to the agricultural industry. Labour is given the same number, meaning rural labour, agricultural labour and, of course, industrial labour. These would get representation—perhaps I should not use the word representation, because the whole idea is not a representative one—so as to get from the various organisations of our industrial life people who will have a special knowledge of that particular branch of the economic life of the country. When we think that on that panel we would have both rural, agricultural and industrial labour, there is no need to justify giving Labour that number. With regard to the other industries, it might be said that, with the development of our manufacturing industries, we ought now to get as large a section from that as from agriculture. I do not think the time has yet come when that could be said. At any rate, with the numbers at our disposal we consider that nine would be sufficient to get from it representatives of our manufacturing industry, sufficient to get men and women who would have a through knowledge of that section of our economic life.
    Finally, we have the administrative panel on which it is suggested there should be seven. That, we think, would be sufficient to enable us to avail of the services of persons who had experience in public administration; of those who had experience by being members of some Government, of those who had experience, say, as chairmen of county councils and, if it was considered advisable, retired members of the Civil Service who had an exceptional opportunity of studying and knowing the details of public administration. As regards the numbers, from what I have said I think I have made it clear that we are not tied to any of these numbers.

The bill as introduced was only a discussion point, with Dev amenable to significant opposition amendment. The 1936 Second House report had about 3 different models; Dev generally favouring the minority view. The opposition parties each had slates of amendments tabled at committee stage which practically replaced the entire draft bill with one of the other 1936 models.

Right to nominate
"What substitute can we find, in other words, for the representative functional bodies that we certainly in the Government would give power to elect directly to the Seanad if they existed"; Dáil vs "nominating bodies"; compromise both, with quota for each ["if you allow a small number of Dáil members to nominate and put members upon the panel, you will practically be excluding the possibility of the outside bodies' nominees getting elected at all"]
Electorate
"There were two proposals. One was the Dáil itself, and the other was the proposal made by the Seanad Commission, that the electorate should consist of the candidates at the general election for the Dáil immediately preceding, it being understood that the number of votes each candidate would have would be in proportion to the number of first preferences he got. The actual proposal in the Bill is that a person who got over 500 first preference votes should have a vote; that he should have one vote for every 1,000 first preferences cast for him, a fraction of 1,000 over 500 being regarded as 1,000, and 500 or under being neglected"

History of process edit

Since some of this is shared with Oireachtas sub-panel, better to do in Vocation Panels page rather than (List of) nominating bodies page.

Acts relating to vocational panels

For many years, Oireachtas easier than Nom Bod, hence "inside" and "outside" nicknames.[1]

Nominations
  • 1937-54
    • Max number of nominating bodies, and max number of candidates nominated by them
    • each nominating body nominates max 1 or 2 to shortlist.
    • "nominating panel" -- each nominating body elects five to the panel annually by STV; panel elects candidates to ballot from shortlist by STV
    • Taoiseach can nominate extra to make up numbers if below minimum (?still the case? is the minimum now lower, ie maybe previously it had to be, say, double the minimum number elected, whereas now could be the same as minimum number elected)
  • 1954:no nominating panel; each nominating body can nominate directly onto ballot.
General elections
  • 1937-47: Each council nominates 5 (or 7?) (by STV?) to electorate; vote on single STV ballot with single quota but 5 panels and 10 subpanels with minimum and maximum number to be elected
  • 1947-54: ?Maybe electorate is same but separate ballot per panel? Or maybe all reform was in 1947, none in 1954.
  • 1954: All councillors vote by STV
By-elections
  • 1937-47: nominating panel elects shortlist of 3 by STV; Taoiseach picks one.
  • 1947-54: nominating panel elects one by STV/AV
  • 1954: nominating bodies as for general election; Oireachtas votes by STV

In 1954 the Wholesale Grocers' Association canvassed other nominating bodies about "a meeting of representatives of all nominating bodies ... to appoint a representative deputation to call upon the responsible Minister to advocate election to the senate from the nominating bodies by direct vote".[2] There was such a meeting in 1955, attended by 27 of the 42 bodies.[3] Another meeting in 1958, by which time the Seanad Electoral Commission was in being; the Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland wrote to the commission, suggesting the representative meeting did not replace the individual bodies in communication with the commission.[4]

Registration as nominating body edit

1937 NUJ and InstJ both applied to be registered on Cult + Ed panel; Dept of Ed voiced objection to including journalism on panel; Dev and dept concerned both were UK-based.[5] Substituted NUJ for InstJ in 1943 irishtimes 1943/0421/Pg003 already a ref

Hints edit

  • 12 June 1940 Seanad Éireann - Volume 24 - cc.1788–89 there are eight nominating bodies registered for the agricultural panel
  • 10 February 1954 Dáil Éireann debates - Volume 144 - c.69 Prior to 1947 the maximum number of bodies which could be registered in respect of a panel was 15. Since 1947 there has been no statutory limit but there has been no significant increase in the number of bodies registered in respect of the various panels. The largest number registered at the moment is 17 in respect of the industrial and commercial panel.

Queries
  1. ^ Not sure if the "Medical Council" referred to in 1945[14] is the Irish Medical Association or the (Irish section of the) General Medical Council (which was superseded in 1979 by the Irish Medical Council).
  2. ^ a b c Is "National Development Association" renamed "National Agricultural and Industrial Development Association"? Did either subsume "Women's Industrial Development Association"?
  3. ^ Listed on the register in 1973 and 1986 but not in 1977, 1981, or 1982.
  4. ^ a b Not sure whether Irish National Vintners' Federation is predecessor of Vintners Federation of Ireland; former's address and place in 1973 list is different from latter's in 1977. NHP states "The Vintners’ Federation of Ireland (VFI) was established in 1973 from smaller Associations".[30]
  5. ^ a b Odd that "Irish Wholesale Grocers' Association" is listed in 1958 and "Wholesale Fruit, Potato and Produce Merchants' Association of Ireland" is listeed in 1977 but no corresponding in intervening years? Possibly omission by me or my sources, or maybe they are unrelated, or [most interestingly] let registration lapse?
  6. ^ Possibly deregistered if and when [re-]affiliated to Chambers of Commerce of Ireland?
