Speaking to reporters, Ms Humphreys said “there are rules around access to Dáil Éireann”.
“It’s very clear you must have garda clearance before you can work in Dáil Éireann.
“And you know those are the rules. And you have to abide by the rules as an employer in Leinster House. And I had to abide by those rules.
“My staff had to be garda vetted before, and this lady was coming in on a day pass. A day pass for six months. You can’t do that.”
