A group of Sinn Féin politicians have written to Tánaiste Simon Harris asking that he use Dáil time to address the Martin Conway affair.

Mr Conway resigned from the Fine Gael parliamentary party over the weekend after admitting to being arrested by gardaí for being intoxicated in public. He said he had been arrested on Dublin’s O’Connell Street on January 22 for being in an intoxicated state “due to consumption of sleeping tablets and alcohol”.
