Nenagh Castle
Posted on September 13, 2017 by Alan Kelly
I have been raising the issue of the funding required to carry out phase two works on Nenagh Castle with the Minister for Public Works for months now.
After his visit last week, I have subsequently been in touch with him and I am confident that the Minister will provide funding to commence the works that have been planned for many years now.
Nenagh Castle looks fantastic and has had record numbers of visitors over the last year. We need to continue this and developing the original entrance to the castle, completing more renovation works and looking at an interpretive centre would really enhance the visitor experience of this fabulous attraction. I'm confident that Minister Moran will help us with this and that funding will be provided in the coming months.

HPV Vaccine campaign
Posted on September 04, 2017 by Alan Kelly
I support the HSE’s Protect our Future HPV vaccine campaign and has condemned the comments of his constituency colleague Deputy Mattie McGrath.
This week, more than 30,000 young girls started secondary school and are due to receive the HPV vaccine in the coming weeks. Due to a large misinformation campaign, medical groups are rightly worried that we will see another dramatic fall in the uptake of the vaccination.
I support this life-saving vaccine and the HSE’s information campaign encouraging parents to allow their children to receive the vaccine.
As a father of two young children, the fact that 40 women will die because of non-uptake of the HPV vaccine last year is startling.

Delighted to be asked to conduct the official opening of Kate Barry's new ladies boutique shop in Tipp Town last night. A fabulous lady who deserves to be supported. Great to see a new retail unit opening on one of the main street's in the town again.
