The Fine Gael leader said it 'could well happen' that a counter motion of confidence could be tabled by the coalition this week. The Tanaiste will face a motion of no confidence over his handling of children's healthcare. Aontu is bringing the motion against Simon Harris, citing a "failed promise" on child spinal surgeries and overall "dysfunction" in Children's Health Ireland (CHI). The motion highlights concerns about paediatric surgical delays and governance of CHI. A counter motion from the coalition could be used to defend the Tanaiste's record. Public and political scrutiny of children's health services is likely to increase as the matter progresses. Stakeholders, including families affected by surgery delays, may use the debate to press for clearer timelines and accountability.
