Congrats Peter ...

Congratulations to our club member Peter Burke on his appointment as a Minister of State at the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government with special responsibility for Local Government and Planning. It's great to see ability rewarded and incredibly Peter becomes the first from the town of Mullingar to hold ministerial office since 1933 and of course is the first member of the club to hold ministerial status. We had the TD in Paul McGrath.

Best wishes too to Robert Troy in his ministerial portfolio at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment. Robert is of course a member of the Ballynacarrigy Club.
