PDs and FF keep low profile
Following the drama of recent days, the PDs are keeping an unusually low profile - they have cancelled an event planned for today.
Fianna Fáil are not making any major plans either, with Bertie Ahern trying to find time to consult his legal advisors ahead of a statement on his personal finances.
Otherwise, the main event of the day is the launch of Fine Gael's election manifesto, when Enda Kenny will be trying to keep the focus on his party's policies.
Sinn Féin will formally launch its campaign later, the Greens will speak about environmental protection and Labour will launch 10-point plan for children.
