Michael McGimpsey
Michael McGimpsey MLA (born 1 July 1948) is an Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) Member of the Legislative Assembly for Belfast South who has twice served in the Northern Ireland Executive. Once seen as a successor to David Trimble, McGimpsey served until 2011 as Northern Ireland's Health Minister with responsibility for nearly half of the NI Executive's budget.
McGimpsey was born in Donaghadee, County Down and was educated in Regent House Grammar School and Trinity College, Dublin.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Biography: Michael McGimpsey )〕 He is a businessman aside from politics involved in property development. In the mid-1980s he came to prominence alongside his brother Christopher when they challenged the Anglo-Irish Agreement by bringing a suit against the Irish government in the High Court of the Republic of Ireland, arguing that the Agreement was invalid because it contradicted Articles 2 and 3 of the Constitution of Ireland (this argument was unusual coming from Unionists because of the traditional Unionist opposition to these two articles.) The case failed in the High Court, and again on appeal to the Supreme Court.
McGimpsey's UUP office is located on Sandy Row in south Belfast.
==Early political career==
In 1993 he was first elected to Belfast City Council.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Belfast City Council Elections 1993–2005 )〕 For the 1996 Northern Ireland Forum election McGimpsey was third on the UUP list.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=1996 Forum Elections: Candidates in South Belfast )〕 As a result he was not involved in the negotiations for the Belfast Agreement. In 1998 McGimpsey was the first member to be elected for South Belfast on the 5th count.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=South Belfast: Details of each count in 1998 election )〕 to the Northern Ireland Assembly. He was appointed to serve as Minister of Culture, Arts and Leisure in the Northern Ireland Executive from 1999 until the collapse of the Executive in 2002.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Who's on the Executive? )〕 One of his achievements was the digitising of the Ulster Covenant by the Public Records Office of Northern Ireland.
