Independent Alliance have met with the Taoiseach

The Independent Alliance has said it is expecting a reply from Enda Kenny early next week about its demands for Government.

Four of the alliance's six TDs this morning met with the Taoiseach - at his request - to discuss their ten-point 'Charter for Change'.

It has said the Fine Gael leader will reply in detail to their demands early next week.

Waterford TD John Halligan has said the Taoiseach himself also put some offers on the table: “He himself has also said that he has some reforms to bring to us regarding reformation of the Dáil, we said we would look at that.

“It was a very constructive meeting in the sense that he listened to everything we had to say regarding our charter.

“We believe that he has taken it on board, we wait to see his response next week and we look forward to meeting him again on maybe Monday or Tuesday.”
