Cathaoirleach
Every year, the members elect a chair called An Cathaoirleach for a term of one year and a deputy chair called An Leas-Chathaoirleach from among its members. An Cathaoirleach acts as the first citizen of the County and, in addition to chairing meetings of the Local Authority, he/she also carries out ceremonial duties. When An Cathaoirleach is unavailable these duties are then carried out by An Leas-Chathaoirleach.
At its annual meeting held on 21st June 2024, Cllr Jim O'Leary was elected Cathaoirleach and Cllr Kazi Ahmed was elected Leas-Chathaoirleach. The next Cathaoirleach will be nominated at the June 2025 Council AGM.
