Drug dealers face eviction by council

CONVICTED drug dealers will be evicted from council houses in Killarney under a draft antisocial behaviour policy adopted by the town council.

Drug dealing, harassment and excess noise can all be tackled in council estates under the revised policy which also includes “nuisance behaviour”.

Drinking alcohol in public, illegal dumping and “unreasonable” holding of parties are among the activities which come under the definition of antisocial behaviour in the policy.
