Senator Pearse Doherty, from Gweedore, is the Sinn Féin representative in Donegal South West and a member of the party's Ard Chomhairle.
Senator Doherty is the Oireachtas party spokesperson on Education, Transport, Regional Development, Gaeilge agus an Gaeltacht.
A civil engineer by profession, Pearse is a strong supporter of the
Irish Language and an avid GAA supporter. A member of Sinn Féin since
1994 he has served on the national executive of Ógra Shinn Féin.
He is an outspoken critic of the failure of successive governments
to invest in the infrastructure of Donegal, something which is leading
to job losses. He is involved in many campaigns to end the
marginalisation of Donegal and to bring forward innovative proposals to
develop the North West as a whole.
