Opposition parties say the Health Minister still has questions to answer over his business troubles.
James Reilly addressed the Dáil at around 10 o'clock last night – and said he had acted with propriety at all times.
And he rejected any suggestion that his share of a property operating as a nursing home in Carrick on Suir is a conflict of interest.
But Sinn Féin are maintaining that there is a conflict – while Fianna Fáil say it's a serious breach of trust for a Minister not to comply with a High Court order to pay off the debt.
