Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

We have a Constitution which clearly states the Taoiseach shall submit his resignation to the President when he no longer has the support of a majority of Members of the House. That is clearly the case currently and there is precedent for this. It is a matter for the President to allow the Taoiseach to continue in a caretaker capacity. When does the Taoiseach intend to comply with the provisions of the Constitution, submit his resignation to the President and make arrangements for the dissolution of the Dáil?
