A West Clare Councillor is describing the Department of Integration’s decision to accommodate Asylum Seekers at a local hotel without community consultation as ‘dictatorial’.
An emergency community meeting has been held at the Kilmaley Inn, where residents have expressed their concerns over the imminent arrival of up to 69 Male International Protection Applicants to Magowna House.
