Noonan: Support for regeneration project is gone

FINE GAEL finance spokesman and Limerick City candidate, Michael Noonan, yesterday claimed the huge regeneration plan for the city had lost its way and the huge support it had was now gone.

Mr Noonan said he was also disappointed at the progress and focus of the regeneration plan which was launched in 2008 with a €3 billion price tag.

He said: “The other worry I have with regeneration is that it had massive support from the communities in the regeneration areas and the wider Limerick community when it started. That’s gone now on account of the way it was handled.”
