Dublin Corporation Reform Debate Aims at End of Monopolies
Mr O Connell argues the Dublin corporation sustains religious intolerance and exclusion, with juries and grand juries packed by sheriffs. He outlines a plan to redivide Dublin into districts, boost common council representation, curb taxation abuse, and restore citizen rights to elect aldermen, sheriffs, and judges. He cites Catholic exclusion since 1793 and calls for a specific act to reform Dublin’s governance.
