Blarney Golf Resort staff want their redundancy payments

Blarney Golf Resort on the outskirts of Cork City

Staff affected by the sudden closure of a Cork city hotel earlier this year must get their redundancy payments before the building is sold for redevelopment as a nursing home.

The call came following reports that the sale of the Blarney Golf Resort on the outskirts of Cork City, which closed without warning in January, is at an advanced stage.
