Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said he is "demoting" Fine Gael TD Maria Bailey.  She's being removed as chairperson of the Oireachtas housing committee, but will retain the party whip.  It comes after an internal inquiry into a personal injury claim.  Deputy Bailey brought a claim against the Dean Hotel after she claimed she fell from a swing in the hotel's restaurant in 2015.

Amid significant public criticism of the claim, the Dun Laoghaire TD withdrew her case in May.  She also faced widespread criticism, including from party colleagues, over a controversial RTÉ interview defending her claim.
