Ó Cuív under fire in name change row

THE Gaeltacht Minister was under fire again yesterday over the bitter Dingle name change row.

During a visit to Kerry, Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny called on Eamon Ó Cuív to comply with the wishes of the people of Dingle, who voted last October to change the name of the Kerry Gaeltacht town from An Daingean to the bilingual Dingle/Daingean Uí Chúis.

Of the 1,222 votes cast, 1,005 were in favour of the name change.
