為了解決核四爭議，民進黨團提出核四公投特別條例，卻被行政院長江宜樺重砲轟擊，他指出條例中採用簡單多數決，是全世界絕無僅有的作法，簡直把公投當兒戲！不過民進黨立委也立刻反擊，現行的公投法門檻太高，根本就是鳥籠式公投，核四未來應該交給全民來決定。

行政院長江宜樺，一早就有備而來，開口就痛批民進黨版的核四公投條例。

[[行政院長 江宜樺]]
“那就是要降低，針對核四這一件事情，所進行的公投，他的投票門檻完全被拿掉，採取所謂的簡單多數決，專門是為了一個，他們想要通過的議題而設計，這是非常的輕忽草率不負責任，完全視我們的公投制度如兒戲”

由於現行公投法，停建核四公投的門檻難度很高，民進黨提出的核四公投特別條例，就拿掉這些門檻，要比照澎湖博奕條管，採用簡單多數決。

民進黨立委不甘示弱，立刻回擊。

[[立委(民) 陳亭妃]]
“我們現在公投法 ，所設定的雙門檻，根本就是騙人的，而且就是國民黨
自己在自我保護的一個鳥籠式的公投”

民進黨最快下禮拜就會將核四公投特別條例送到程序委員會，只是，在藍委多數優勢下，要能順利闖關，恐怕很困難。

Premier Jiang Yi-huah criticized draft legislation that would allow a simple majority of voters to decide whether work on the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant should end. The proposal put forward by the DPP would bypass the high turnout required under current referendum law. 

This is what the premier said about the DPP’s proposed special statute for the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant referendum.

Jiang Yi-huah
Premier
They want to lower the threshold for the referendum pertaining to the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant. For an issue they want passed, they want the threshold eliminated so a simple majority is enough. This is incredibly careless and irresponsible. It’s as if they’re treating our referendum system like a game.

Under current law, it is highly difficult to pass a referendum. The proposed DPP statute eliminates one threshold – on requiring that at least half of all eligible voters participate for the vote to be valid – as was the case for a 2009 referendum held in Penghu County on gambling.

After the premier’s comments, the DPP continued this tit-for-tat.

Chen Ting-fei
DPP Legislator
The two thresholds established by our Referendum Act are a scam. They act like a “birdcage” that the KMT has built to restrict referendums and protect itself.

The DPP hopes to send its bill to the Procedure Committee next week, but with KMT lawmakers holding a majority, the party may have trouble getting it through.
