Oireachtas

The Oireachtas (/ˈɛrəktəs/; aerak-tahs), sometimes referred to as Oireachtas Éireann, is the legislature of Ireland. The Oireachtas consists of: * The President of Ireland * The two houses of the Oireachtas (Irish: Tithe an Oireachtais): * Dáil Éireann (lower house) * Seanad Éireann (upper house) The houses of the Oireachtas sit in Leinster House in Dublin, an eighteenth-century ducal palace. The directly elected Dáil is by far the more powerful branch of the Oireachtas.
