A third TD has been thrown out of the Dáil for trying to raise a health issue with the Taoiseach this morning.

The Ceann Comhairle ordered Independent Clare TD James Breen to leave the House when he interrupted Bertie Ahern with a question about the MRSA bug.

Yesterday, two Cork TDs - Fine Gael's Bernard Allen and Labour's Kathleen Lynch - were suspended after repeatedly interrupting proceedings during a furious row about cancer services in the south.

Green Party deputy Dan Boyle also walked out in protest at how the pair were treated.
