The Galway East deputy said that he had been given medical advice to stand down, though RTÉ reports he had already been nominated by the party’s constituency organisation to contest the next election. His retirement means that three of the four current TDs in the constituency are stepping down; Fine Gael’s Ulick Burke and Paul Connaughton have already decided to step down.

Allen is also a former chair of the Oireachtas Committee on European Affairs, and is currently the chair of the high-profile Public Accounts Committee.
