There must be a public inquiry into the scandal that allowed defective blocks to be used in the building of homes. That’s the clear view of Mayo Sinn Fein deputy Rose Conway Walsh and she says the homeowners impacted by the scandal must receive 100 percent redress to restore their homes.
Linda Conway a homeowner in Westport whose home was impacted by pyrite, hosted a public meeting this morning in Pairc na Coille to outline her situation to public representatives and others.
