Conway pays tribute to Joe Carey

Clare Fine Gael Senator Martin Conway has paid tribute to his friend and political colleague Joe Carey who has announced he will not be seeking re-election to Dáil Éireann due to ill health.

“It has been a privilege to work with Joe for the last twenty years and particularly the last thirteen years as a member of the Oireachtas. We have worked together as members of the Fine Gael Parliamentary Party to ensure Government delivered for County Clare and its people.

“Joe has been a great advocate for the people of County Clare. In recent times, Joe has undergone significant medical challenges and I have no doubt it has been a very difficult time for him.

“I would like to wish Joe, Grace and their family the very best for the future,” Senator Conway concluded.
