The Reform Movement is a non-denominational, non-party movement working towards a post-nationalist, pluralist Irish state in which there will be full recognition of the diversity of identities and traditions in our society. Reform members value both Irish and British traditions and believe that true reconciliation in Ireland and across our islands will not be achieved until we have a state that accommodates our overlapping cultures and identities. This means that the Republic of Ireland must face up to the reality that as a state it is closely linked to the United Kingdom socially,culturally and economically. In this context Reform welcomes the creation of the Council of the Isles and supports the idea that Ireland should join the Commonwealth. Reform is committed to the better representation of the rights, concerns and aspirations of minorities in the Republic in the Constitution, Bunreacht na hEireann.
