A warm welcome back to the council chamber in County Hall was extended to Cllr John Brennan on Tuesday by Cathaoirleach of Kilkenny County Council, Cllr Michael McCarthy.
Cllr Brennan, a local councillor in the Castlecomer Municipal District, had been unable to attend recent council meetings in-person, as he continued his recovery from a sudden health setback.
Brennan, a former Cathaoirleach of Kilkenny County Council himself, is a popular figure, and received a round of applause from his fellow elected members, as well as from members of the executive.
