Minister describe Tipp visit as road fact finding mission

In his first ministerial visit to the Premier Shane Ross met with a delegation from the County Council who want extra monies to deal with rapidly deteriorating roads

Although he would not commit to additional money for roads this year, the Minister said he is now better informed about what is needed in the county

The meeting was chaired by the Cathaoirleach of Tipperary County Council Siobhan Ambrose…the Fianna Fail representative says she's not surprised that the Minister did not commit to providing additional monies
