| Description | Fianna Fáil will not contest the Presidential election.
It is the first time the party will not run a candidate.
The decision was made this afternoon at a lengthy meeting of the Parliamentary Party.
Fianna Fáil says it will advise members how to vote in the election once nominations close at the end of next month.
The party also remains open to facilitating the nomination of any independent candidate.
Micheál Martin says it was a difficult decision.
But he added it was one they simply had to make. |
