Open thread: What would you like to see happen in the Dáil this year?

Politicians are back in Leinster House today for the first Dáil session of 2012 – but what issues would you like to see them dealing with?

POLITICIANS ARE BACK in Leinster House today for the first Dáil session of 2012.

The 166 TDs are due to discuss wages for agency workers and cuts to teachers in disadvantaged schools later this afternoon. Other issues that are likely to come up include Revenue’s handling of the pension tax and the troika officials in Dublin.

But there’s still a long way to go in the Dáil session – so what would you like to see them dealing with in the Dáil?

Burning the bondholders? The much postponed Children’s Rights Referendum? Or something slightly more unexpected?

Let us know in the comments.
