A Glenties woman has retired from making tea at Britain’s Westminster after more than 30 years.
Noeleen Delaney looked after the needs of countless MPs in the House of Parliament including John Hume and many others.
Derry MP Mark Durkan has paid tribute to Noeleen who has retired after 30 years in the Members’ tea room.
Mr Durkan said: “May I also join in the tributes to Noeleen Delaney who, like all the staff in the House, serves us with dedication and discretion.
“She is ready with consideration and chat, but – typical of Donegal decency – never gossip.”
Leader of the House, David Lidington said members wanted “to say a big thank you to Noeleen Delaney, one of the stalwarts of the tea room staff, who is retiring from the House of Commons after 30 years of service here. That is a record of service for which we are all very grateful.”
