Congratulations to my longtime friend and colleague, Michael Clark who has been selected to run for Fianna Fáil in the Killiney-Shankill Local Electoral Area (LEA) along with Helena Kelly in May 2019. This is a strong ticket for the area and I wish them both well. Please vote #1 & #2 in order of your choice.

On the first day of 2019, Cormac participated in a New Year beach clean-up along Killiney Beach which was organised by Flossie Donnelly (11) while members of Dalkey Tidy Towns assisted along with many other volunteers.


Justin Moylan & I attending the 32nd (2018) Christmas Day lunch in Stradbrook Rugby Club, organised by local woman, Margaret Brown. This year was a fantastic success with attendees thoroughly enjoying themselves on Christmas Day rather than spending it alone. Well done Margaret!

Well done to the many business in Ballybrack who organised a wonderful Christmas event. I joined our local election candidate Michael Clark and the owner of the Igo Inn pub. Tom McHugh at the festive celebrations.



The Christmas spirit was all around Dalkey for Santa's arrival into the village. Justin & I were on hand to greet the "King" and Dalkey resident and MC for the night, Mary Kingston!




Cormac attended the annual turning on of the Christmas lights at the Deansgrange Crossroads which was organised by the businesses of the area.  There was an enormous crowd who were thrilled when Santa arrived to meet the boys and girls, young and old. Well done to all of the organisers!

Well done to all the transition year students of Blackrock College for running such a professional radio station. I was delighted to take part in the interviews on BCR FM which raises money for Saint Vincent de Paul. Well done lads.


Cormac joined the teaching and administration staff on their lunch time work stoppage at the Institute of Art, Design and Technology (IADT) in solidarity with all other Institutes of Technology around the country.


Yet another new business opens along the main street in Dún Laoghaire. This time it was in the long term vacant, Marks & Spencer's premises. If you haven't already, make sure you pop in and see their product range, you'll be very impressed. I wish Heather and all the staff in Sostrene Grene a prosperous time ahead.

I toured the grounds of the former Shanganagh Castle Open Prison grounds with some members of the Shankill GAA club who are keen to see additional sporting facilities included in any future development of these lands, as am I.


I was privileged to attend the launch of the Fianna Fáil Bill which would give the Moore Street area and in particular the buildings in which the rebels took their last stand would be protected from demolition and ruin. Here, Prionsias O'Rathaille is giving an interview to the assembled media. 


An event not to be missed, the Cuala annual Family Fun Day in Dalkey. Always great fun for the whole family and well worth supporting.

Dún Laoghaire Chamber kindly invited me to attend one of their many Business Networking evenings which was held in the unique and fascinating surrounds of the Leinster Rugby Head Quarters.


I attended the blessing of Dalkey Rowing Club's newest boat. The event took place in the Tramyard in Dalkey. It was a wonderful day.

This area includes; South County, Stillorgan, Sandyford and Central Park Business Parks. Councillors, Tommy Murphy, Gerry Horkan and I were pleased to attend. It's exciting times in Sandyford and I wish them every success.


I was honoured to attend once again, the annual Defence Force's commemoration at Merrion Square. It is fitting tribute to all those who've died in service
