Cork events centre uncertainty drags on

The uncertainty over the Cork events centre is set to drag on after senior city officials last night refused to answer questions on the status of the tender process.

During a heated city council meeting, councillors slated the acting chief executive, Dan Buggy, when he said he could not shed any light on a process which appears to be in limbo.

Cllr Des Cahill (FG) summed up councillors’ feelings when he compared the situation to the Garth Brooks debacle in Dublin.
