The front gates of Leinster House were blocked with a cement mixer truck today as members returned after their lengthy summer recess.
The words "Toxic Bank Anglo" were written in red letters along the barrel of the truck, which was driven up to the guarded gates on Kildare Street at 7.15am.
A 41-year-old man was arrested at the scene and is being detained at Pearse Street garda station.
No one was injured in the incident.
A garda spokesman said the suspect is being held under section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984. He can be held for 24 hours.
Gardai and a recovery crew were attempting to remove the truck, which was immobilised and was blocking one lane of Kildare Street.
