The Labour Party is proposing wide-ranging review of Government and the public service, which the party claims would represent the most significant reforms since the foundation of the State.
The proposals would make ministers and their officials accountable for their actions, would see the abolition of the Seanad, and would also see more Dáil sitting days.
Labour is proposing fundamental reform, starting with the Constitution.
Their Constitutional Convention would have 90 members and would be tasked with drawing up a new document within a year.
It would look at the method of election to the Dáil, but on the issue of the future of the Seanad the party says the case for retention has failed and it now favours abolition.
The document had detailed proposals for reforming the day-to-day workings of the Dáil, which would see a 50% increase in its sitting days.
Labour would also replace the Ministers and Secretarys Acts with a view to making ministers and their officials legally accountable for their actions or omissions.
There would be a fiscal council to give independent economic assessments, the restoration of Freedom of Information powers and further restriction on political contributions.
Eamon Ryan cool on quick Seanad vote
Green Party Minister Eamon Ryan has said he does not believe it is possible to hold a referendum on the future of the Seanad on the same day as the General Election.
His comments came after Minister for the Environment John Gormley saying on Tuesday that any such plan would be 'very ambitious' as it would be difficult to frame such a complex piece of legislation in a short time.
Fine Gael and Labour have both previously said that they were in favour of the abolition of the Seanad.
Mr Ryan said while the exact date of the upcoming General Election still has to be agreed, a contest in March would be acceptable to the Greens.
He said such a timeframe would allow for important legislation to make its way through the Dáil.
Responding to Mr Ryan's comments, Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny said it would be an act of astonishing cynicism if ministers tried to use St Patrick's Day engagements abroad as part of the election campaign.
Mr Kenny was speaking at the launch of his party's tourism strategy.
He derided suggestions that he had been keeping a low-profile and said Fine Gael would be fighting the election without making pacts with any other parties and would be aiming for an overall majority.
