FINE Gael TD Olwyn
Enright, wife of Donegal North East TD Joe McHugh,
has announced she will not be contesting the next
general election.
Ms Enright said that, with a young family, she would
not be in position to give the required commitment
as an elected representative. She was first elected
to the Dáil in 2002.
"This has been a difficult decision that I have
deliberated over for some time and I have made this
announcement now to enable the local Fine Gael
organisation time to select a team of candidates to
retain the seat for the party," she said in her
statement. |
