Taoiseach and 19 Ministers to travel for Patrick's Day events
The Taoiseach and 19 Ministers will take part in events in 21 countries for St Patrick's Day this year, as part of the "Promote Ireland" programme.
When the Fine Gael-Labour Government took office two years ago, ministerial travel for St Patrick's Day was significantly scaled back, with just eight Ministers and the Taoiseach taking part in March 17 festivities outside of Ireland.
