Róisín Garvey (born 5 July 1973)[1] is an Irish Green Party politician who has served as a Senator since June 2020, after being nominated by the Taoiseach.[2] [3] She was elected deputy leader of the Green Party on 14 July 2024.[4]
Garvey grew up in Inagh and attended Coláiste Muire, Ennis and NUI Galway.[5] Her father, Flan Garvey, was a Fianna Fáil member of Clare County Council between 1985 and 2009. Garvey formerly worked for An Taisce.[6]
She previously served as a member of Clare County Council from 2019 to 2020.[7]
Garvey was an unsuccessful Green Party candidate in the 2020 general election for the Clare constituency. A fluent Irish speaker, she represented the Greens on the Irish-language TV debate on TG4 prior to that election.[8]
On 24 March 2021, Garvey was one of three Green Party senators to table a motion of no confidence against party chairperson Hazel Chu, after Chu announced her candidacy in a Seanad by-election as an independent.[9]
In 2022, she opposed plans for an eight wind-turbine farm in County Clare. She said, "There are a lot of people locally who don't want it there because they already have enough of wind-turbines in the area... I have never been out demanding wind farms in my life and I don't intend to start now".[10]
On 14 July 2024, Garvey won the Green Party's deputy leadership election to succeed Catherine Martin.[11]
She has one son.[1]
