On Tuesday’s Morning Focus, Alan was joined by Michael Neenan, chairman of the Clohaninchy Action Group. There has been ongoing disputes over land in Quilty, the land in question is the Sandhills which is also known as freehold land or commonage at Seafield beach. The dispute has resulted in a minority of those who own the land fencing it off in order to prevent people from parking there.

Michael discussed the local community outrage and how due to the fencing off of the area the parking space has been limited and cramped. He also highlighted the funding that was put on pause as a result.
