We were joined in-studio on The Agenda this morning by Labour TD for Louth, Ged Nash, who has formally written to Ministers Colm Brophy and Jim O’Callaghan ahead of the expiry of the IPAS contract with the D hotel in Drogheda, this month.Deputy Nash says that for local economic reasons, the government must allow the deal to expire on the agreed date, and that the hotel needs to be restored to full tourism use to help boost Drogheda. Deputy Nash spoke with Minister for Migration Colm Brophy this week, and has been raising the expiration of the contract with the Minister for Justice Jim O’Callaghan, for weeks now, via Parliamentary Questions.Deputy Nash spoke to us in more detail about all of this.
