He was finally elected to the 20th Dáil as Labour Party Teachta Dála (TD) for the Kildare constituency at the 1973 general election. After the 1981 general election, Labour and Fine Gael formed a coalition government. Bermingham was appointed by the government to the position of Minister of State at the Department of Finance with responsibility for the Office of Public Works. He served in that post until early 1982 when the government of Garret FitzGerald fell in a vote on the budget. When a new Fine Gael–Labour Party coalition came to power after the November 1982 general election Bermingham returned to same position. He lost that position as part of a reshuffle in February 1986. Bermingham resigned from the Labour Party in June 1986, which left the government parties in a minority in the Dáil. He did not contest the 1987 general election. He remained active in local politics and was elected to Kildare County Council in 1991 as an Independent.
