Following the retirement of the most recent permanent Chief Executive of Mayo County Council, in accordance with section 145(6) of the Local Government Act 2001, as amended, the then Minister with responsibility for local government, appointed a Temporary Chief Executive to the post. This temporary appointment commenced on 14 May 2020. A permanent appointment has not yet been made.

My Department received a staffing sanction request for the post of Chief Executive of Mayo County Council on the 17 September 2020 and a letter of approval sanctioning this post issued on 21 September 2020.
