Two-thirds of female senators report being sexually harassed

Cathaoirleach of Seanad Éireann Mark Daly said he will raise these figures at the next meeting of the Houses of Oireachtas Commission.

Over two-thirds of female senators in the Seanad have been sexually harassed, the Irish Examiner can reveal.

An anonymous survey carried out by this newspaper, a week after a similar survey of female TDs, received responses from 17 out of 19 female senators.
