Taoiseach's Absence From Leader's Questions Draws Sharp Criticism from Opposition

It was expected Simon Harris would face questions on his first full day in office.

The opposition has hit out at the Taoiseach for failing to take Leader's Questions in the Dail this afternoon.

It was expected Simon Harris would face questions on his first full day in office.

However, it emerged he wouldn't be available.

Sinn Fein Leader Mary Lou McDonald says it's unacceptable.

Government Chief Whip, Hildegarde Naughton, told TDs why the Taoiseach would not be taking questions today.
