Sale of land to Niall Collins' wife by Limerick County Council has been seized upon by the Opposition
The allegations were first reported on the investigative news site The Ditch.
“But the sense from the Opposition benches was that the controversy is likely to continue to dog the Government over the coming days, at least until Mr Collins makes his Dáil statement.” Mr Murphy claimed Mr Collins’s “failure to recuse himself, his failure to declare a conflict of interest is not only a breach of the code of ethics but a breach of that legislation and an indictable offence”.
There will be time set aside for the statement but as yet no slot has been scheduled for today or tomorrow.The Government is divided on applying some of the significant changes to abortion legislationThere is some division in the Cabinet about implementing some of its more controversial changes, especially dropping the three-day ‘pause’ period that forms part of the current legislation.
