Cork Council launches new online portal to provide access to various services

People will be able to report potholes, cracked footpaths, and faulty playground equipment and get their dog licences online on a new portal launched by Cork County Council.

The public can now access 45 different services online, and council officials say more will be added in the coming months.

Cork county is the first local authority in the country to launch such a comprehensive range of online services and comes after the council surveyed more than 3,000 members of the public to gauge they wanted.
