Denis Naughten: I can’t guarantee Government support in vote of confidence

Independent TD and former minister Denis Naughten said he will only support the Government on a case-by-case basis, should a vote of confidence be called.

Amid heightened tensions between Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil, the role of Independent TDs such as Mr Naughten, Noel Grealish, and Michael Lowry has come into focus as their votes are needed to keep the Government in office.
