In election news, Fine Gael candidate for the Corca Dhuibhne LEA, Tommy Griffin says the Transport Minister should spend a week in Kerry trying to commute from Dingle to Tralee.
Mr Griffin believes the lack of funding is smothering the progress of the N86 road and says the remaining sections of the N86 need to be prioritised and completed without further delay.
