‘Full delivery of the regeneration programme has to be ensured’

THE Power Report, which was commissioned by developer Ger Clohessy, warns against any row-back on the huge regeneration plan to transform Limerick’s deprived council estates.

“There is a fear, in an environment of slower economic activity, government commitment to the regeneration plan may not be realised,” economist Jim Power said.

As the government reviews the national development plan, it was essential that the Limerick regeneration plan progresses, he said.
