Former Fine Gael senator Eugene Regan has been reappointed by the Cabinet to the Court of Justice of the European Union.
Mr Regan, a former Goldman Sachs non-executive director, was appointed to the €250,000 a year role by the last Fine Gael led Government in 2015.
The Cabinet agreed today to give him another five years in the prominent EU role following an intervention by the President of the Court of Justice Koen Lenaerts.
A Government source said Mr Lenaerts contacted the Government to “make clear his strong recommendation” for Mr Regan’s reappointment.
It is understood one other candidate expressed an interest in the position but the Cabinet decided to reappoint Mr Regan. Justice Minister Helen McEntee brought a memo on the appointment to Cabinet.
