Higgins seeks reverse of Dail ban for Lawlor debate

Socialist TD Joe Higgins is threatening to picket Leinster House for an hour today in an attempt to have his suspension from the Dail overturned, so that he can attend a debate on Liam Lawlor.

Deputy Higgins who is also a representative for Dublin West, was banned from the chamber before Christmas for disobeying the Ceann Comhairle.
