Sinn Féin's Arthur Morgan to step down from politics

SINN FÉIN’S finance spokesman Arthur Morgan has confirmed he will be stepping down from politics at the next election. RTÉ’s Nine O’Clock News reported that Morgan, a TD for Louth, had decided not to seek re-election but instead to return to running the family business. The four-seat Louth constituency will only elect three TDs next time out, with Ceann Comhaire Seamus Kirk being automatically returned to the Dáil.
