Irish politician challenges constitutionality of "super junior" ministers in Cabinet meetings.

Sinn Féin TD Patrick 'Pa' Daly is challenging in the High Court the constitutionality of "super junior" ministers attending Cabinet meetings, arguing it violates the Constitution's limit of 15 government members. The Irish Government contests the claim, stating it is necessary to have more attendees at Cabinet meetings and may require a special three-judge panel. The case could be heard as early as May.
