Varadkar and Martin to meet over support deal

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin are to meet later this month in a bid to extend the confidence and supply deal.

Mr Varadkar has said he intends speaking to Mr Martin in the “coming weeks” in a bid to extend the life of the Government.

The Irish Examiner understands a meeting between the two party leaders is due to review the progress of the deal, which sees Fianna Fáil facilitate the Government from opposition.
