Justice Minister Helen McEntee will take oral questions on the appointment of Supreme Court justice Seamus Woulfe, but will not undergo a questions and answers session.

Ms McEntee this evening wrote to Ceann Comhairle Sean O Fearghail to ask him to convey to the Dáil Business Committee that she would like her next session, due to take place on December 15, to be brought forward "to a date satisfactory" to members.
