Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour) | Oireachtas source

The reason I say that is that I have in my hand an e-mail which was sent by one of those associated with Deputy Boyd Barrett on this matter, and it reads as follows:

Unfortunately, management had not contacted the group on Monday and it was, therefore, too late to call off the Dáil Éireann Leaders' Questions programme which is going ahead on Thursday.

It goes on to refer to discussions with Deputy Boyd Barrett and with Sinn Féin. Then it states:

Given the service reduction is taking place in Eamon Gilmore's back yard, the group cannot guarantee that political opportunity will not spill over into the subject of the children's referendum [to which Deputy Boyd Barrett has now referred] on top of the opportunity to add further adverse publicity upon James Reilly and Eamon Gilmore's lack of a suitable response.
