The Taoiseach is remaining tight lipped on the transfer of Shannon Heritage sites to the local authority.
Negotiations between the Government, Clare County Council and Shannon Airport Group had been ongoing since the beginning of the year, with the Council understood to be looking for a multi million euro package.
However, it’s understood Clare Councillors were told this morning that a senior civil servant has told the local authority funding would not be provided.
Speaking in the last few minutes in the Dail, Micheal Martin’s told Clare Independent TD Michael McNamara it’s not the end of the matter.
Listen back to their exchange here:
Contrary to what the Taoiseach told me yesterday about the proposed transfer of Shannon Heritage sites to Clare County Council: Councillors have been told that the Council was informed on Budget Day that the required funding was refused. This is no way to treat the workers there. pic.twitter.com/Zu4W7YxHYJ
