James Lawless appointed as Minister of State at the Department of Transport

Fianna Fáil Minister of State Dara Calleary has been named as the new super junior who sits at Cabinet following the promotion of Jack Chambers as Minister for Finance.

Mr Calleary will retain his current portfolio as as Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise. Appointed as chief whip when the Government was formed in July 2020, Mr Calleary became Minister for Agriculture shortly afterwards when Barry Cowen was sacked by Taoiseach Micheál Martin. However, within a few weeks Mr Calleary had resigned in the midst of a controversy over his attendance at the Oireachtas Golf Society Dinner in Clifden during Covid restrictions.
