Gormley wants to keep Cabinet position

Environment Minister John Gormley says he wants to keep his job.

It follows speculation about the forthcoming Cabinet reshuffle and reports of a deal which would see Minister John Gormley relinquish his cabinet position in favour of Dublin TD Ciaran Cuffe.

Fine Gael has also accused the Minister of trying to leave his Department because of his failure to stop the the controversial Poolbeg Incinerator in Dublin.
