The survey was carried out among mass-goers in 26 Irish diocese.
Practicing Catholics here want to would like to see priests allowed to marry, the ordination of women and more respect for the LGBTQI+ community.
However, they also want to see shorter sermons at masses and the removal of 'bloodthirsty' readings from the Old Testament.
A survey, carried out among mass-goers in 26 Irish diocese - will be reviewed by a 160-strong national assembly in Athlone this weekend.
It, along the findings from other countries, will then go before a synod in Rome next year.
However, the Bishop of Limerick says ordaining women is not necessarily a solution to the issues affecting the Catholic church.
Brendan Leahy says all of the issues raised in the survey need to be fully examined:
