Organisers of a fundraising scheme to restore diving boards to Newfoundout in Kilkee this summer say they should be installed within weeks.

Money has been raised to purchase the boards from America, but an Irish Water Safety report has highlighted issues that need to be sorted before they can be installed.
Clare County Council says it is working with the local community with a view to erecting new diving boards and addressing all health and safety concerns.
In 2010, health and safety issues saw the boards removed for a portion of the tourism season, leading to deep frustration amongst locals in the West Clare town.
