State commitment to Limerick regeneration challenged

THE Limerick Regeneration Plan cannot continue in limbo, Fine Gael’s deputy finance spokesman Kieran O’Donnell warned yesterday.

“Though Minister John Gormley has publicly committed €10 million to the project, we still do not have a specific start date, nor has the money been released.

“When I previously questioned Mr Gormley on this, he was unable to give any specific information about funding and only referred to ‘advancing’ the planning,” Mr O’Donnell said.
