Party holding Ard Fheis in DCU
Sinn Féin is debating its longstanding opposition to the Special Criminal Court today.
Their leader Mary Lou McDonald says she recognises there's a need for a non-jury court in Ireland.
At its Ard Fheis in DCU today the party will vote on a motion to change their position.
The Sinn Féin leader says the court still needs reform.
Crime Journalist Paul Williams says change would represent a massive policy U turn.
He adds that jurors can be intimated in regular courts, and have been in the past.
