The Government Chief Whip Paul Kehoe has confirmed that Dáil Éireann will mark the dreadful events in Paris, saying:

The atrocities in Paris have appalled the Irish people and, as is fitting, the national parliament will mark these terrible events when business resumes on Tuesday with a minute's silence in memory of the victims followed by statements to express our sympathy and solidarity with their families, friends and all of the French people on behalf of the Irish people.
