Ceann Comhairle had ‘quiet word’ with rowdy TDs

CEANN Comhairle Sean Barrett has admitted to having a “quiet word” with TDs whose rowdy Dáil behaviour is provoking complaints from the public.

Mr Barrett said that while the Dáil was a debating chamber, meaning there would be “to and fro”, he had become concerned the problem was escalating.

“I was a bit concerned of late that it was growing and I did try and put a stop to it,” he said.
