He was elected to Dáil ÉireannasFine Gael TD for the Donegal–Leitrim constituency at the 1973 general election.[2] He was re-elected at the 1977 general election as the TD for the new Donegal constituency. After further boundary changes, he was re-elected at the 1981 general election as the TD for Donegal South-West, and did not contest the February 1982 general election.
