Dail Delayed As Too Few TDs Turn Up

The Ceann Comhairle has hit out at tardy TDs – after Dáil business was delayed because not enough deputies were present.

Today's business was due to start at 10:30 but didn't get underway until ten-past-eleven, as there were too few members in the chamber.

Dáil rules require a minimum of 20 TDs to be present before business can start – but for half an hour only 15 were present.

When business did finally get underway, Ceann Comhairle Sean Ó Fearghail was critical of the delay.
