  1. The majority of those tents were only slept in one night, what a waste of tax payers money

  2. Be great to see an itemised bill. I imagine any contract work for a government body is very handy money.

  3. Great news for my new business: “D4 Tents and Fence”

  4. They’d want to take those fences down and relocate all those tent people to an appropriate location and enforce that they stay there. We don’t have a summer but at least we should be able to drink beside the canal.

  5. I never really get the point of these articles, do people believe it doesn’t cost money to do these things ? Is it market value or not that’s more what I care about. The government budget is €96,600,000,000 billion this year I doubt any service is suffering as a result.of this cost.

    While I don’t really understand the point of fencing, I’ve no problem spending money clearing these camps, same thing happens on the continent. Councils have done similar with ilegal traveller camps up and down the country for years.

    Am i missing something?

  6. They’re camping there so they can be near the International Protection Office. Move the office, or at least where these people will go after their initial signing to a site out of town with temporary hygiene facilities. It’s not an ideal solution but it’s better than this mess.

  7. Irelands Rwanda plan and FF and FG were rewarded in the local elections for it .
