A “very stark” report showing Cork County Council is not getting its fair share of Government funding is to be given to the Taoiseach, the two Cork-based ministers, and secretary generals of government departments.

Cork County Council chief executive Tim Lucey said the report highlights the need for Government funding to be distributed on a more equitable basis, especially considering the county's size and population.
