The new head of the Cashel-Tipperary Municipal district says Tipp Town has been failed by the system.
Michael Fitzgerald has been defending the record of former Fine Gael TD and Junior Minister Tom Hayes.
Unemployment levels have climbed steadily over recent years in the West Tipp town with the latest CSO figures showing 1-in-3 people don’t have a job.
Speaking to Fran Curry on Tipp Today, Councillor Fitzgerald says his Fine Gael party colleague Tom Hayes did a lot of work for the local area when he was in government but he’s admitting that it didn’t have a huge effect.
