TD opposes boarded-up houses’ demolition

THE Limerick Regeneration programme moves into St Mary’s Park today where boarded-up houses will be demolished and replaced by small green areas.

However, Labour frontbench spokeswoman Jan O’Sullivan TD has challenged the demolition of houses which she said could be refurbished.

She further claimed that the regeneration plan is no longer a Government priority with a €25 million budget for the coming year.
