Appointments to the District Court
At its meeting today, the Government decided to nominate Mr. Michael Coghlan, Mr. Patrick Durcan and Ms. Gráinne Malone for appointment by the President as judges of the District Court.
These appointments are to fill the vacancies, which arose from the retirements earlier this year of Judge William Hartnett, Judge Tom O’Donnell and Judge Michael Patwell.
The Government have taken the necessary steps to formally advise President McAleese of the nominations in accordance with Constitutional procedures.
