Proceedings which were supposed to take place yesterday - but were suspended due to a row over speaking time for government-supporting independents from the opposition benches.

Under the agreement of this coalition Micheal Martin will be Taoiseach until 2027 when the role will then transfer to Simon Harris - with an election to be held in or before November 2029
