Four green councillors wrote to Deputy Martin asking her to try and oust the current leader as a row over going into government continues within the party.
Malcolm Noonan is a supporter of Mr Ryan and says it’s good to get the threat off the table for now and he doesn’t think the party’s position has beenb damaged by this episode.
