The new chair of Mid Ulster District Council Dominic Molloy has said the local council area must play its part in preparing for a ‘new Ireland’.
Sinn Féin councillor Dominic Molloy was nominated by the party as the chair of the council for the upcoming year, with the UUP’s Meta Graham being chosen as deputy chair by her party.
The republican party was once again the largest in the council area following local council elections last month which saw it gain 39 seats to become the largest in Northern Ireland at local government level.
