Secretary’s stern warning over finances fails to fluster delegates

RATHER surprisingly, Secretary Eamonn O’Sullivan’s warning about the precarious nature of County Board finances provoked no reaction from delegates at last evening’s annual convention in Tralee.

While he stressed the necessity of having a regular source of income to meet “ever-increasing administrative costs” there were no questions raised from the floor.

Indeed, apart from Desmonds delegate Tom Brennan inquiring if royalties were received from O’Neills from the sale of replica jerseys, nobody raised any of the issues carried in the Secretary’s report or those highlighted by Chairman Sean Walsh during discussion of the Treasurer’s report.
