'No budget' to build a public swimming pool in Co Cork

No new public swimming pools look likely to be built in Co Cork in the foreseeable future as the county council has said it doesn't have the money to fund them.

The news will come as a particular blow to people living in Carrigaline, the county's biggest town and where councillors insist "the demand is great".
