557The issue of what one should consider as being the appropriatenumber of representatives in a bicameral Parliament is a recurring matter ofdebate among politicians and constitutionalists. Indeed, those wishing to reformthe system focus on how to determine a balanced relationship betweenthe quantity of elected representatives and the quality of democratic representation.The number of members of the House of Deputies and the Senatewas once determined by the drafters of the Italian Constitution and has neverbeen altered since then. Currently, the number of MPs is the focus of a morespecific constitutional amendment which will be put to a referendum, on thebasis of Art. 138 It. Const., this coming Autumn. In the past, the debate on theappropriate number of MPs was usually seen as a marginal issue within thecontext of much broader constitutional reforms, but this time the situation isdifferent because the proposed constitutional amendment is much more specific.The question, therefore, is very simply whether a sharp reduction of MPsmight adversely affect the integrity of Italian democracy?
