Seán wages campaign to secure ministerial experience

When Kerry transition year student Seán Hurley writes up his ‘placement report’, it will, by necessity, be somewhat incomplete.

The 16-year-old yesterday embarked on a week-long stint shadowing Arts, Heritage, and Gaeltacht Minister Jimmy Deenihan.

Seán, who attends Mercy Mounthawk, will access all areas with the minister, except the Cabinet chamber and a few other behind-closed-doors situations.
