Sligo Leitrim Deputy accuses government of making it impossible for people in Sligo to access concrete redress scheme

The Dáil has heard today that the people in Sligo whose homes are impacted by Pyrite are not pretending that their lives have been severely impacted by the condition.

Sligo Leitrim Deputy, Martin Kenny made the comments during a debate on a motion seeking to reform the defective concrete redress scheme.

The Sinn Fein TD says that only five people in Sligo have been able to submit applications to the scheme.

The Leitrim TD says the scheme is set up in such a way that it is blocking people from receiving redress
