Jarveys ‘open to talks’ in Killarney horse dung row

KILLARNEY jarveys yesterday insisted they have always been available for talks with their local town council on the vexed horse dung issue.

But they also said they were “extremely disappointed” at recent reported comments by town council manager, John Breen, that he was no longer prepared to tolerate horse dung on the streets.

Efforts by the council, over several years, to get jarveys to use equine sanitary devices on their carriages have failed.
