Denial from Enda Kenny as Michael Lowry outlines backing

Taoiseach Enda Kenny has strongly denied there is any deal, written or otherwise, with Independent TD Michael Lowry.

Mr Lowry’s support for the minority Government has been the subject of much debate and the matter was the subject of a debate in the Dáil yesterday.

On foot of questions from Labour TD Alan Kelly — who shares the Tipperary constituency with Mr Lowry — and Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin, Mr Kenny denied any deal exists.
