Government Chief Whip Jack Chambers has said he 'would not speculate' on any issues related to Marc MacSharry being readmitted to the Fianna Fáil parliamentary party
Government Chief Whip Jack Chambers has said he"would not speculate" on any issues related to Marc MacSharry being readmitted to the Fianna Fáil party.
He had been expected to be readmitted at a Fianna Fáil parliamentary party meeting last night, but it is understood TDs, MEPs and Senators were told an issue had arisen, and accordingly, Deputy Chambers was not in a position to bring the relevant motion to members.Speaking on RTÉ's Morning Ireland, Deputy Chambers said they"weren't in a position to progress the motion at last night's parliamentary party" but it is something they hope can be revisited soon.
Asked about reports that a complaint from outside the parliamentary party had been made against Mr MacSharry, he said:"I'm not going to speculate on that, and it wouldn't be fair to speculate or state either way what the matter involves."
