Report on reasons behind voter behaviour in the Oireachtas Inquiry referendum 2011.
Policy Report.
Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.
This report draws on both quantitative and qualitative research carried out by RED C
into voting on the referendum on Oireachtas Inquiries held in October 2011. It
addresses three main questions:
− Why did people vote as they did in the Oireachtas Inquiry referendum?
− What does the public think about the political reform agenda to which the
government is committed?
− What lessons can be learned for future votes on reform?
