Cork City councillors accept boundary extension findings

Members of Cork City Council have unanimously accepted the findings of the local government review which recommends the retention of their council and the first city boundary extension in half a century.

At their first full council meeting since the publication on Friday of the Mackinnon review, city councillors agreed last night to accept its findings. They did so without debate.

But they have also agreed to discuss the review in detail next Monday — behind closed doors.
