Fianna Fáil sets up new amalgamate­d rural cumann

-

THE Fianna Fáil party has set up a new cumann in Wexford following the amalgamati­on of the two existing cumanns in Oylegate and Glenbrien.

The meeting to set up the new group took place in the Slaney Inn, in Oylegate.

There was a big crowd in attendance at the meeting and it was well supported by grass roots members and supporters.

Deputy James Browne TD chaired the meeting during which Cathaoirle­ach of Enniscorth­y Municipal District Council, Cllr Willie Kavanagh, was elected chairperso­n of the new branch.

In addition to local members the meeting was also attended by the party’s joint regional organisers, Eileen Higgins and Cllr Joe Sullivan.

Cllr Kavanagh was also se- lected to contest the forthcomin­g local elections in May in the newly aligned Kilmuckrid­ge electoral area - which the Oylegate- Glenbrien cumann is now part of.
