A question over Carlow Town's local authority chains, triggered by an Irish Times report, led to a disagreement between Mayor Paul Doogue and Councillor Andrea Dalton towards the end of yesterday's Carlow Municipal District meeting, which continued on The KCLR Daily this morning. On this morning's show, Brian Redmond spoke about this unexpected political controversy with retired Carlow Town Councillor and former Council chairperson Walter Lacey, Councillor Andrea Dalton and Carlow Municipal District Mayor Paul Doogue.
