Verona Murphy made history last December when she became the first female Ceann Comhairle of Dáil Éireann. After just months into that role, she has become the first to face a vote of no confidence.
So what does this mean for Murphy? How might her background and experience help her navigate this political storm? And what else do we know about the politician who first made a name for herself in the haulage industry?
Political correspondent Harry McGee traces her career and outlines the challenges facing her.
Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan.
