Taoiseach Micheál Martin has been called upon to review the code of conduct for ministerial officeholders after Tánaiste Leo Varadkar admitted leaking a confidential document.

Social Democrats co-leader Róisín Shortall said "by any standards, the past few days have been damaging to the Government" and, by extension, damaging to politics.
