Anger at Limerick city hall ‘fob off’

The 21 metropolitan district members of Limerick City and County Council are furious at being literally fobbed-off by officialdom at Limerick City Hall.

Anger at Limerick city hall ‘fob off’

Fobs, which allowed councillors open access to all departments, have been deactivated and the elected representatives now have to make appointments if they wish to see officials.

The former mayor of Limerick, Cllr John Gilligan, said: “This is bureaurcacy gone mad and an insult to the people who have been elected to represent the people of the city on the new council. The council did not even have the courtesy to inform us that our fobs were deactivated. I found out when I went to see an official and the fob didn’t work.”
