Clare tourist attractions deal halted over State aid row via IrishTimesBiz
“In the comprehensive independent due diligence report submitted to Government, Clare County Council detailed significant neglect of the sites, the urgent need to halt the deterioration of the assets and the investment required to achieve this,” said the local authority on Friday.
Sean Lally, owner of the Woodstock Hotel in Ennis and chair of the Clare Tourism Advisory Forum, argued that €15 million over three years was not a significant sum in light of Government spending on big capital projects. Workers protested for a second time on Friday at a decision to cut Bunratty’s opening hours back to four days a week from seven in January and at the Government’s failure to provide cash to aid the ownership change.
