Ged Nash, Labour, Louth

 

Nash was the youngest ever Mayor of Drogheda in 2004-2005. He is particurarly interested in issues of crime and health. He holds that his constistuency has seen huge population growth in recent years, without added investment or integrated planning, resulting in Louth having the lowest number of Gardai per head of population in the country. He will see through the construction of the 'Regional Centre of Excellence' on the site of Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital. Nash feels he understands the positions of young families in his area, but worries about the tendency of south Louth voters to vote for Dundalk based candidates.
