He was also a member of the Education Committee from 2012 to 2016 and the Public Accounts Committee from 2013 to 2014.[2]
At the snap general election held on 8 June 2017, he was elected as the MP for South Down, defeating the incumbent SDLP MP, Margaret Ritchie. It is the first time that his party have represented the seat.[2]
Personal life
