Council criticised for not cleaning up beach

AS a local resident I feel I must express my disgust and shame at the state of Tramore beach on the Tuesday and Wednesday evenings following last week’s bank holiday.

None of the rubbish had been cleared from the beach during that 24-hour period. I am aware that Irish people have a very lax attitude when it comes to litter, but this does not excuse the failure of the local authority to clean the beach each day.

The litter was left to be carried away by the tide to litter other beaches such as Garris, Kilfarrasy and the surrounding coastline.
