Taoiseach Micheál Martin has refused to give his backing to Stephen Donnelly to remain on as Health Minister in the upcoming Christmas Cabinet reshuffle.
Mr Martin was speaking at the Fianna Fáil Ard Fheis in the RDS on Saturday afternoon where he wholeheartedly endorsed the Housing Minister, Darragh O’Brien, staying on in his brief.
He listed the Government’s supposed achievements in housing as reasons for Mr O’Brien to remain in the challenging role.
