The Dáil will elect the chair of the Dáil next Thursday.
A midlands TD is considering running to be Ceann Comhairle of the next Dáil.
Former Communications Minister Denis Naughten is rumoured to be in the running along with incumbent Sean O Fearghail, co-leader of the social democrats Roisin Shorthall and Fine Gael TD Bernard Durkan.
The Dáil will elect the chair of the Dáil next Thursday.
Outgoing Ceann Comhairle Sean Ó Fearghail wants a second term but Fianna Fáil needs his vote with the arithmetic so tight.
