Pleased to address the @CorkChamber Dublin Dinner last night. Outlined that my key immediate priority is to deliver, with colleagues, a new medium-term economic plan for Ireland, which prevents short-termism and will anchor our spending and taxation plans for the years ahead

I am extremely saddened to learn of the passing of the late Donal Carey. Donal was deeply committed to public service, dedicating well over 20 years of his life to the people of Clare, as a councillor, TD, Senator and Minister of State. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.

We deeply value Ireland’s steadfast support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and its clear stance in condemning Russia’s occupation of Crimea. Your voice strengthens our shared efforts to restore peace and security in Europe. #StandWithUkraine
