The Dáil will vote on a confidence motion in the Ceann Comhairle for the first time in its history today.
Opposition parties have come together to submit the motion in Verona Murphy after her handling of last week's speaking time row.
The opposition alleges Ms Murphy colluded with the Government parties to get the new speaking times for the Regional TDs and coalition backbenchers over the line.
The Ceann Comhairle, who is expected to survive the vote, has said she has no intention of going anywhere.
