A Kerry TD’s High Court action challenging the constitutionality of super junior minister appointments seeks the judiciary’s “unprecedented” intervention in the inner workings of the Government’s executive branch, the Attorney General has said.
Rossa Fanning made the argument in presenting the State’s defence to Pa Daly’s case, which opened before a three-judge divisional court on Monday.
