ISSU Statement: The ISSU expresses their condolences on the passing of Mrs. Gemma Hussey

The Irish Second-Level Students’ Union (ISSU) extends their deepest condolences to the family and friends of former TD and Minister for Education, Mrs. Gemma Hussey. 

Mrs. Hussey served as Ireland's first female Minister of Education, and was a trailblazer for her time. She was passionate about female rights, especially in education, and she will be remembered for her time as a powerful voice for women in Irish Politics. 

Our sympathies are with Mrs. Husseys family and friends at this time. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam.
