Yesterday was the first day back in the Dail and it wasn’t without its drama.  Sinn Fein's motion of no confidence in Simon Coveney was defeated but Fianna Fail TD Marc Mac Sharry voted against the Foreign affairs Minister and resigned from the party.  Joining Ciara to discuss all of this was Peter Burke, Fine Gael TD and Minister of state with responsibility for Local Government and Planning.
