Justice Minister Helen McEntee says that her proposal to take parliamentary questions on the appointment of Seamus Woulfe to the Supreme Court is adequate.

TDs have demanded for the last two weeks that Ms McEntee make a statement and take questions on the matter. However, Ms McEntee has proposed that her scheduled appearance to take her normal oral parliamentary questions be brought forward.
