A proposal was brought by TD Barry Cowen to have MacSharry reinstated in the party.

McSharry had voiced concerns about his party’s position to enforce a whipped vote in supporting the government minister and as a result, resigned from the parliamentary party. However, there was confusion over the internal rule book and how someone can be reinstated, it is understood. Another said the issue tonight was “dancing on a pinhead”, as there appears to be confusion as to whether someone who resigned the party whip must apply, while those that vote against the party whip can be readmitted by a seconded proposal.

A group within the Fianna Fáil parliamentary party have proposed to coordinate with Ministers Michael McGrath and Darragh O’ Brien on the matter.
