The verdict in Leinster House is straightforward: the broadcaster’s statement is not good enough
Away from all the sturm und drang, the most welcome news yesterday was the safe arrival of baby Alice, born at 1.39AM to proud parents – our own Political Correspondent Cormac McQuinn and Elaine Coffey – with newly minted big sister Kate primed for action. Cormac reports she is hale and hearty at 4.18kg, “or 9lb 3oz in old money for the Brexiteers among us”.It is, of course, impossible to look past the Media Committee’s engagement with RTÉ at 1.
In the evening, the committee on budgetary oversight looks at the public service performance report, published last week. The agriculture committee meets with the Irish Farmers’ Association to discuss horticulture.In the Seanad, the committee stage of the Criminal Justice Bill 2022 is at 12.45pm, before statements on Local Government Matters at 2.30pm.
