Date set for planning appeal on Great Blasket cafe development

LONG-RUNNING plans to provide a cafe and other services on Great Blasket island will be the subject of a Bord Pleanála hearing in Dingle next month.

Organisations and people who are objecting, or submitting reservations about the plans, have been invited to attend the hearing.

Approval was given to Blascaod Mór Teo, the company that owns most of the island, by Kerry County Council last November.
