Irish property market news and insights – for the industry, by the industry  

 

Before we get stuck into the general property news of the week, below are the local and international stories that might be of particular interest:

If you missed last week’s round-up, you can catch up here: https://propertydistrict.ie/category/sunday-property-review/ 

 

As always, you might let me know if I have missed out on any relevant property news by emailing  carol@propertydistrict.ie.

 

(Apologies in advance for any typos, it’s difficult to get good help on a Sunday. Also, I use voice to text dictation so just sound out anything that really doesn’t make sense in a strong rural accent and that should help!)

  • Spelling of County Limerick village deemed ‘ridiculous’ by TD: The way in which an east Limerick village is spelled on road signs has been described as “ridiculous” in the Dáil. Deputy Pa Daly has used the example of Oola, in a debate on the use of the Irish language on signs. He wants to see strengthened legislation to ensure Irish versions of place names are given more prominence on signs. https://www.live95fm.ie/news/live95-news/spelling-of-county-limerick-village-deemed-ridiculous-by-td/
