Donegal Deputy Joe McHugh will not be a part of the new Government Cabinet.
The outgoing Minister for Education has confirmed he will not be a Minister in the new coalition government.
The Fine Gael politician will now have to wait until next week to see if he is chosen by his party leader Leo Varadkar as a Junior Minister.
In a tweet just minutes ago, the Carrigart man thanked the Taoiseach and wished the new Government well.
He wrote “Thank you @LeoVaradkar for the opportunity to serve in Cabinet. We achieved a lot.
“I wish the new Government every success. An rud is annamh is iontach.”
