Irish premier Micheal Martin has said he is focusing on getting the work done rather than his future role in government at the end of next year.

Mr Martin is set to hand over the post of Taoiseach to Fine Gael leader Leo Varadkar in December 2022, under the terms of the government deal agreed between the two traditional political rivals and the Green Party.
