Sun, 20 Oct 2024 07:26:20 GMT

Government Spending is concentrated in Dublin.

If elected I will be a voice for Balanced Regional Development.

We deserve our fair share in:

Housing – 147 adults and 23 families currently in emergency accommodation in North West. Many more hidden homeless. Couch surfing, living in cramped accommodation with friends and relatives. Labour will build 50,000 homes each year, we must get our share.

Health and Disability Services – Cancer and urgent Cardiac care.

Speech, Occupational, Physiotherapy, Mental Health services - waiting lists so long, many forced to pay. Those who can’t, do without.

Childcare, Education – Class sizes the highest in the country, Childcare places - short-supply.

Public Services must be delivered by the State in our region.

Transport – We need additional Local Link Services, improved cycling infrastructure, links to Knock Airport and N17.

Western Rail Corridor and second rail line to Dublin must be introduced.

Vote Balanced Regional Development.
