Sinn Féin has said the party has no confidence in Ceann Comhairle Seán Barrett after a sit-in in the Dáil chamber this afternoon.

Mary Lou McDonald TD was suspended from the chamber by the Ceann Comhairle but refused to leave. A four hour sit-in followed with Sinn Féin deputies remaining in the chamber. The Dáil was adjourned for the day at 4.30pm, and will resume next Tuesday.

Following the adjournment of the Dáil Ms McDonald spoke to the press.
