Publisher's Synopsis
Nealon's Guide to the Dail and Seanad is the long established and standard parliamentary guide to Ireland. A new edition has been published after every general election since 1973. Ted Nealon has now retired and Gill & Macmillan, in collaboration with The Irish Times , will continue to publish this outstanding political guide in future years. The layout, presentation and detail will be similar to previous editions. As usual every election count from every constituency will be presented with the lucidity and ease of reference which has made Nealon's Guide a legend. It contains profiles of every TD, every member of the Seanad and every member of the EU commission. There is comment and analysis by The Irish Times political staff. This new edition continues the strong tradition of statistics, ranging from the essential to the quirky: everything from the narrowest margins of victory to TDs' birth signs. With the unrivalled authority and resources of The Irish Times now available to it, this is more than ever the essential Irish political directory.
