Yesterday, Simon Harris was formally appointed Ireland's youngest-ever Taoiseach.
Mr Harris was nominated by the Dáil with a majority vote of 88 to 69 after he was proposed by Fine Gael and supported by Fianna Fáil, the Green Party and a number of independents.
He then travelled to Áras an Uachtaráin where he was formally appointed by President Michael D Higgins.
Before the vote was held, opposition parties and independent groups voiced their opposition to the change in leader and continued their calls for an election.
