Priests challenged on Erris pipeline stance

I SEE that a Shell to Sea delegation recently met Communications, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Eamon Ryan to protest against the terminal and gas pipeline in Erris, Co Mayo.

According to reports, the delegation presented the minister with a letter signed by the three priests of the parish.

In it, the three are reported to have said they hoped the genuine concerns of locals would dealt with in a constructive manner. They also said the majority of the local community in Bellanaboy were against the project.
