Martin to announce Fianna Fáil reshuffle

A reshuffle of the Fianna Fáil front bench is set to be announced today.

Party leader Micheál Martin is expected to announce a number of changes later today.

However he is not likely to name a new Deputy Leader and plans to scrap the post.

The post has been vacant since Eamon Ó'Cuív resigned and went to the backbenches, following a row over his Opposition to the Fiscal Treaty referendum.
