The mother of missing teenager Amy Fitzpatrick met with Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen at Government Buildings yesterday.
Audrey Fitzpatrick and her partner Dave Mahon are hoping that the Taoiseach's intervention will help in the investigation into the mysterious disappearance of the 16-year-old in Spain.
Mr Cowen met with the Dublin couple for about an hour to hear the latest developments in the case.
Amy vanished on the evening of New Year’s Day 1st January 2008 at approximately 10pm when she left her friend’s house in the tourist resort of Riviera Del Sol on the Costa del Sol to take the 10 minute walk to her house.
The Taoiseach's office promised to contact the Irish embassy in Madrid to help in the investigation.
"At the end of the day, he's the pulse of Ireland and has more contacts than we have at home," Ms Fitzpatrick said, adding the couple would host a benefit in Spain next month to raise funds for their ongoing search.
