Fallout from Minister McEntee's Seamus Woulfe statement

The Justice Minister told the Dáil today that the process of appointing Seamus Woulfe to the Supreme Court was handled properly. However, she said that the system for appointing judges is not perfect. Helen McEntee was giving a statement on the issue to the house this afternoon after declining to do so for the last three weeks. Sean Defoe, Newstalk’s Political Correspondent ran down what happened. The, Josepha Madigan, Minister of State for Special Education and Inclusion, and Fine Gael TD for Dublin-Rathdown, and Paul Murphy, RISE TD for Dublin South West debated whether we should be satisfied with what the Minister has said and done.
