Housing estates ‘are hell after darkness falls’

A LABOUR member of Dungarvan Town Council, who is set to become mayor next month, has claimed that when darkness falls all hell breaks loose on some of the housing estates.

“I have seen people who are experiencing absolute hell because of antisocial behaviour,” Cllr Teresa Wright told this week’s council meeting during a discussion on a proposed antisocial behaviour policy document the local authority is about to implement.

Town clerk Joe O’Flaherty told the meeting that while they had invited public submissions on the draft document, only one had been received dealing with noise and loud music.
