City - Your Representatives
Dublin City Council is made up of 52 members, known as Councillors. Councillors are elected using Proportional Representation using the Single Transferable Vote, every five years from Local Election Areas. The party or group of parties which win the majority of seats control the City Council agenda, deciding who sits on what committee, what policies are followed, and who becomes the Lord Mayor. The City Council meets in plenary session on the first Monday of every month in Dublin City Hall.
Listed below is an illustration of the current structure of the Council in terms of each political party.
