FG joins calls for laws to compel attendance at Dáil Committees

Fine Gael is calling on the Government to change the law immediately on compellability of witnesses before parliamentary committees.

It follows a decision by former Anglo Irish Bank Chairman Sean Fitzpatrick not to attend today's sitting of the Oireachtas Committee on Regulatory Affairs.

The decision has sparked outrage amongst opposition parties.

Fine Gael TD for Mayo Michael Ring says it's time for An Garda Síochána to investigate.
