Efforts to clear the housing lists in Mid Tipp have been branded as “paltry”

There are also dozens more waiting in Templemore, Holycross, Borrisoleigh, Gortnahoe, Littleton and elsewhere.
Work is progressing in the development of new homes, while the council is also pursuing housing through various other avenues such as RAS and the Repair & Leasing Scheme.
But Sinn Fein Councillor David Doran says it’s not enough.
