The Cathaoirleach of Galway County Council has written to the Taoiseach asking him to consider Galway for some of the events of the EU Presidency next year
David Collins says such events are always held in Dublin and it would be a chance to shine a light on another part of the country during the term of office from July to December
Cathaoirleach Collins says having EU leaders in Galway would give an opportunity to highlight to Europe Galway's infrastructural needs
