Haughey attended almost twice as many Dáil votes as Wallace

SEAN HAUGHEY turned up for almost twice as many votes in the last Dáil session as newly appointed junior minister Mary Wallace.

Mr Haughey, who was considered the front-runner to fill the vacancy created by Ivor Callely’s forced resignation, was present for 44 of the 45 Dáil votes in the last term, which ran from September 28 to December 14. This gave him a near-100% record.

Jim Glennon, another TD widely touted by FF insiders, was present for 38 of the votes, giving him an 84% record.
