Plenary Delegates
Once a local election takes place and our 949 local Councillors across Ireland are democratically elected, each local authority nominates three of their elected members as delegates to AILG and they remain in place for the full 5-year term until the next local elections. Our Plenary delegates are responsible for setting the strategy and policies of AILG, which are then implemented and delivered through our Officer Board and Executive Committee.
