Description

Fine Gael party leader John Bruton says the Irish Parliament must get to the bottom of the current crisis over the extradition of Father Brendan Smyth which looks likely to lead to early elections after Taoiseach Albert Reynolds was forced to resign and new Fianna Fail leader Bertie Ahern has been unable to form a coalition government.
