Cork's three newest junior ministers have been outlining their priorities in their first days in the job.

While the county is now represented by just Taoiseach Micheál Martin at full Cabinet level, Fianna Fáil's Michael Moynihan and Christopher O'Sullivan, and Fine Gael's Jerry Buttimer, have begun sketching out the roles as ministers of state.
