Clare County Council says it’s been asked to use its ‘discretion’ by the Department of Housing on allocating homes to Ukrainian refugees.
Elected representatives heard at their monthly meeting last evening that the Council opposes Russia’s stance in the current conflict and wants ‘an immediate ceasefire’.
