It was expected Simon Harris would face questions on his first full day in office.

The opposition has hit out at the Taoiseach for failing to take Leader's Questions in the Dail this afternoon.

It was expected Simon Harris would face questions on his first full day in office.

However, it emerged he wouldn't be available.
