Minister of State Tom Hayes has not had any engagements in Northern Ireland since he took office on 5 June 2013. However my late colleague, Minister of State Shane Mc Entee, met Minister Michelle O Neill briefly at the launch of the Future Trees Trust in Loughgall, Co. Armagh on 16 May 2012 and he attended Balmoral Show Breakfast Reception the following day. He also attended the NSMC Plenary meeting on 2 November 2012 in the Offices of the NSMC Joint Secretariat, Armagh.
