No specific agenda as Fianna Fáil heads into talks

Fianna Fáil is taking a much more relaxed attitude to talks than Fine Gael.

The party is due to hold a series of meetings today in an attempt to gain the support of Independents groupings and smaller parties.

However, unlike Fine Gael, which yesterday set out a template for discussions based around the areas of housing and rural issues, the party is taking a different tack and has not set down a specific agenda.
