TAOISEACH SIMON HARRIS is travelling back from Budapest this morning and will request that the Dáil be dissolved at Áras an Úachtaráin later this afternoon.
The dissolution of the parliament will trigger the start of a short three-week election campaign ahead of polling day on 29 November.
TDs rose and the 33rd Dáil was suspended for the final time yesterday evening, marking the end of Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil and the Green Party’s four-year coalition.
