There could be further disruption and protest in the Dáil next week, as opposition TDs are continuing to object to government plans to give new questioning slots to coalition-supporting TDs.

Opposition sources have signalled Dáil business could be impacted in the middle of next week, following a vote of no confidence in Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy.
