Wexford TD Verona Murphy to stand in bid to become first female Ceann Comhairle
Briefly

The Regional Independent Group today formally agreed to nominate Deputy Murphy for the €225,000 position, marking a significant milestone in the political landscape.
There has never been a female Ceann Comhairle, but her nomination reflects the necessity for inclusivity and diversity in Dáil Éireann, promoting gender equality.
The bloc emphasized this is an opportunity for all Dáil members to promote gender equality in Irish politics, indicating a broader push for inclusivity.
Tipperary North Independent Michael Lowry has reached out to the leaders of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael for support in electing Deputy Murphy to the position.
