It is advocating the creation of six seat constituencies to give greater proportionality.
In a speech to be delivered this evening in Limerick, Labour leader Eamon Gilmore will say he understands the anger felt by people in the county, which is to lose 14,000 voters to the Kerry North constituency under the revision recommended last October by the Constituency Commission.
Deputy Gilmore says the system should be changed to allow future Constituency Commissions to publish a draft report, on which voters and interested parties can comment, before delivering its final report to the Oireachtas and the Government.
Secondly, he wants to see constituency revisions based on preliminary census figures, rather than the final figures that are issued a year later.
This change was suggested by High Court Judge Frank Clarke in his judgment on a legal challenge to the boundaries used for last year's general election, which he accepted were seriously out of line.
Finally, in order to ensure greater proportionality, Deputy Gilmore is calling for a change in the current terms of reference to allow for six-seat constituencies, at the moment the maximum number of seats in a constituency is five.
