As Minister for Health and Children in 2004, he introduced a ban on tobacco smoking in all Irish workplaces and established the Health Service Executive (HSE). Ireland was the first country to introduce a full workplace smoking ban. As Minister for Foreign Affairs in 2009, Martin travelled to Latin America for the first time, and made the first official visit to Cuba by an Irish government minister. That same year, he travelled to Khartoum following the kidnapping of Sharon Commins and Hilda Kawuki. In 2010 he became the first Western foreign minister to visit Gaza since Hamas took control there in 2007. On 18 January 2011 Brian Cowen accepted his resignation as Foreign Minister. On 26 January 2011 Fianna Fáil announced that Micheál Martin had been elected as the eighth leader of the party, following Brian Cowen's resignation as party leader four days previously. In the 2011 general election, Martin led the party to its worst showing in its 85-year history with a loss of 57 seats and a drop in its share of the popular vote to 17.4%.
Pearse Doherty (born 6 July 1977) is an Irish Sinn Féin politician. He is a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Donegal South–West constituency and is Sinn Féin's Dáil spokesperson on Finance. He previously served on Donegal County Council from 2004 to 2007 and in Seanad Éireann from 2007 to 2010.

Tánaiste Micheál Martin has made grave accusations against the builders of the new National Children's Hospital.
He claimed at Leinster House that main contractors BAM had not resourced the hospital site adequately for some time and was "delaying" completion of the project.
Availing of Dáil privilege, Mr Martin said the various deadlines set by BAM were "likely to be part of a commercial strategy by BAM to try and extract more money and more funding from the Irish people."
He called on the contractor to resource the site "adequately and comprehensively to enable this hospital to be completed as fast as we possibly can."
But he was told by Sinn Féin that the NCH project has been "a slow-moving car crash since day one" and Health ministers have been asleep at the wheel, the Dáil was told ...

Pearse Doherty of Sinn Féin reminded the Tánaiste that Leo Varadkar had said many years ago that "short of an asteroid hitting the planet," the National Children's Hospital would be built by 2020.
The safe bet now was that the hospital would not be operational before 2026, he said.

As Minister for Health and Children in 2004, he introduced a ban on tobacco smoking in all Irish workplaces and established the Health Service Executive (HSE). Ireland was the first country to introduce a full workplace smoking ban.

Tánaiste Micheál Martin has made grave accusations against the builders of the new National Children's Hospital.
He claimed at Leinster House that main contractors BAM had not resourced the hospital site adequately for some time and was "delaying" completion of the project.
Availing of Dáil privilege, Mr Martin said the various deadlines set by BAM were "likely to be part of a commercial strategy by BAM to try and extract more money and more funding from the Irish people."
He called on the contractor to resource the site "adequately and comprehensively to enable this hospital to be completed as fast as we possibly can."
But he was told by Sinn Féin that the NCH project has been "a slow-moving car crash since day one" and Health ministers have been asleep at the wheel, the Dáil was told today.
Pearse Doherty of Sinn Féin reminded the Tánaiste that Leo Varadkar had said many years ago that "short of an asteroid hitting the planet," the National Children's Hospital would be built by 2020.
The safe bet now was that the hospital would not be operational before 2026, he said.
