Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said he is willing to enter a confidence-and-supply arrangement with Fianna Fail, however he ruled out going into a coalition with Sinn Fein.
Mr Varadkar said he would be open to working with a minority Fianna Fail government if his party fail to secure enough votes.
During the first televised head-to-head debate of the General Election campaign, Mr Varadkar said he would be willing to go into coalition with any party, except Sinn Fein.
