Cllr Maurice Shortall
Its hard to believe I am over half way through my second term on Kilkeny County Council, times were never so difficult, resources were never so scarce, and i am only too well aware of the hardships which to my experience are prevalent across all sectors. I will continue to do my utmost for the constituents of North Kilkenny and to repay them for the wonderful support i received in the Local Elections of 2004 and 2009. I joined the Labour Party in 1981 and am a member of SIPTU since 1976.
