'Unacceptable': Sinn Féin hits out as 'no-show' Simon Harris unavailable for Leaders’ Questions

Opposition parties criticised the Government for voting through changes to the Dáil order of business for Wednesday which meant that Leaders’ Questions was among the items dropped from the schedule.

Sinn Féin has criticised the Taoiseach as a "no-show" saying it is “wholly unacceptable” that Simon Harris did not attend the resumption of the Dáil following his appointment.

The Government today tabled a proposal to the Dáil which dropped the normal Leaders' Questions slot and instead began the day with a motion on the implementation of a European regulation around human trafficking.
