The Taoiseach says the appointment of a successor to Cardinal Seán Brady with someone who has a child protection background is “very welcome”.

Monsignor Eamon Martin is to take on the role of Coadjudtor Bishop of Armagh – meaning he’ll take over eventually from Cardinal Brady.

Enda Kenny will meet with Cardinal Brady and a number of bishops this afternoon, where the plans to introduce abortion legislation are expected to dominate the agenda.
