Education Minister and Fianna Fáil TD Norma Foley spoke to Jerry ahead of her party’s Ard Fheis this weekend. As Minister for Education, she has announced new anti-bullying measures for schools. Jerry also asked her if Fianna Fáil plans to run a candidate in the Kenmare Local Electoral Area to replace Cllr John Francis Flynn who won’t be contesting June’s elections. Fianna Fáil’s two other councillors in the Kenmare Municipal District, Michael Cahill and Norma Moriarty are running.

A Kerry councillor says it's borderline criminal that people cannot get planning for houses on their own land adjoining national roads. Fianna Fáil councillor Michael Cahill is calling on An Bórd Pleanála and Transport Infrastructure Ireland to review its Spatial Planning and Roads Guidelines.
