Cllr. Jackie Healy-Rae joins Treasa Murphy to talk about why he wants Kerry County Council to amend its standing orders. Cllr. Healy-Rae wants any prospective candidate in future Presidential elections, who is seeking to make a presentation to the full Kerry County Council to win its nomination, to first secure the sponsorship of at least one elected member of the council. He argues that this would deter frivolous presidential candidates from seeking the council’s nomination.
