Myrade McGuinness appointed European Commissioner of Ireland for ‘Important Economic Portfolio’

Published on

Myrrh McGuinness has been chosen as the next Irish commissioner following the resignation of Phil Hogan, who will be given a financial services portfolio.

“Ms McGuinness, who has been MEP since 2004, has significant political experience and is currently the first Vice President of the European Parliament,” said Ursula von Der Lane, President of the European Commission.

This experience is crucial in advancing the EU’s monetary policy agenda and ensuring that it supports and strengthens the Commission’s top priority, especially the dual green and digital transition. ”

Fine Gayle MEP, who has been Vice President of the European Parliament for a long time since 2014, holds a high position in Brussels.

Former Prime Minister and Commissioner of Latvia Valdis Dombrovsky will take over the commercial portfolio from 2014. Hogan resigned amid a dispute over Ivoryland’s Covid-19 breach of self – isolation laws.

The Commission considers that the Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union portfolio was formerly part of Mr. Dombrovsky’s briefing and is leading the Commission’s banking and financial reforms.
