The row over an opinion poll commissioned for Fine Gael's Jim Mitchell is escalating.

The poll was taken before Mr Mitchell was appointed as Fine Gael deputy leader.

He says it was an anonymous gift.

Minister for Justice John O'Donoghue is demanding that Mr Mitchell publicly state whether he declared it to the Public Office Commission. He says failure to do so is an ethical breach.
