| Description | Ireland's minority government is in crisis as a controversy surrounds its deputy prime minister.
The main opposition party, Fianna Fáil, has indicated that it will put forward a motion of no confidence in the deputy prime minister Frances Fitzgerald.
This threatens the confidence and supply deal keeping Prime Minister (Taoiseach) Leo Varadkar's minority Fine Gael government in power.
A formal motion on the issue is yet to be presented by Fianna Fáil, however.
The controversy concerns Ms Fitzgerald's handling of a police whistleblower controversy when she was justice minister. |
