The Roscommon TD Denis Naughton is expected to lose the Fine Gael Whip after voting against the Government last night.
Mr Naughton sided with Opposition parties backing calls for the retention of the A and E unit at Roscommon hospital.

The Fine Gael TD said he had no choice but to vote with the Opposition because of promises he made during the election campaign to keep the emergency department open.
Roscommon’s second Fine Gael TD Frank Feighin says he thinks he will pay a political price for siding with the government in a Dáil motion looking for a reversal of cuts at his local hospital.
