Tóibín to attend public meeting in Claremorris

Aontú leader Peadar Tóibín will attend a public meeting in Claremorris next Monday to highlight "deteriorating services in the local area". 

The meeting, which will address issues such as healthcare, education, crime and farming, will commence from 8pm at the Town Hall.

Mr Tóibín will be joined at the meeting by Aontú representative for Mayo, Paul Lawless, who said Claremorris is suffering from lack of investment.

“Local services have never been as strained. Claremorris is suffering from a sheer lack of investment in local services. This is more important than ever before given the significant increase in our population. The inability of the government to develop a coordinated plan for Claremorris is laid bare as healthcare, education, and policing services are stretched beyond capacity. At the same time the farming community is also under threat,” Mr Lawless said.
