He achieved ministerial office in 1987, in the 25th Dáil, when Fianna Fáil returned to power under Taoiseach Charles Haughey and formed the 29th Government of Ireland. From 12 March 1987 to 31 March 1987, Lyons served briefly as Minister of State at the Department of the Marine (under Minister Brendan Daly), before being appointed as Minister of State for Tourism and Transport under minister John Wilson. At 1989 general election, Fianna Fáil had hoped to increase its representation in the 26th Dáil, but instead lost seats and found itself in a coalition government with the Progressive Democrats. Lyons returned to his previous job as Minister of State, this type in the renamed Department of Tourism Transport and Communications, under Minister Séamus Brennan. He left ministerial office in a reshuffle on 11 February 1992. At the 1992 general election, Fianna Fáil won only one seat in the five-seater Cork North–Central constituency, and Fine Gael's Liam Burke replaced Lyons in the 27th Dáil. He then stood unsuccessfully at the 1993 Seanad Éireann elections on the Industrial and Commercial Panel. He contested the 1997 Seanad election to the Cultural and Educational Panel, but lost again, and retired from politics. He died on 7 July 2014. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Denis Lyons」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
