The Government has been accused of seeking to “muzzle” the Opposition by restricting the numbers of TDs sitting on 24 Dáil committees, due to be announced tomorrow.

Opposition parties have slammed as “outrageous” the attempt by the new Government to reduce their say in how the Dáil and its committees do their work.
