ROSCOMMON
Now Delivering
Feighan is Minister of State Deputy Frank Feighan says he’s delighted to “get a second chance in politics” after completing a remarkable political comeback. In 2016, Feighan chose not to run in Roscommon/Galway, due to the fallout (for his career prospects) from Constituency the Roscommon Hospital Roscommon-Galway controversy. In February 2020, he instead turned his attention to Sligo/Leitrim, where the Boyle man won a seat. Last night his political comeback was sealed when he was informed by Fine Gael leader Leo Varadkar that he will be appointed as a Minister of State by new Taoiseach Micheál Martin.

Last night, Minister of State-elect Feighan told the Roscommon People: “Fine Gael leader Leo Varadkar rang me on Wednesday evening and said he had good news for me. I accepted the offer of a ministry with delight”. Reflecting on his topsy-turvy political journey, Deputy Feighan said: “Life is an unknown journey, with trials and tribulations. I stand over my record on Roscommon Hospital and am proud of the work we’ve done there”. See more on page 3.
