A TD for Cavan and Monaghan has said it was a big decision for Heather Humphreys to put herself forward to seek a nomination to run for president.
David Maxwell, Fine Gael TD for Cavan and Monaghan, spoke on the Joe Finnegan show this morning about Humphreys decision earlier in the week to seek the Fine Gael nomination.
He said it was a big decision, not just for herself but for her family as well.
