"Labour has delivered for Inishowen" - Farren 22.09.14

THE Labour Party has "delivered key projects" for the county including Inishowen, the party has said at its Donegal AGM.
Moville-based Cllr Martin Farren who was re-elected to Donegal County Council last May, outlined the projects that have been delivered in his area as a result of Labour's participation in Government.
He said these included €1.8 million for Moville Community College and the retention of Greencastle Post Office.
“No-one can come up to me and say that Labour hasn’t delivered for my community, it has,” said Cllr Farren.
He also referred to a new €130,000 pedestrian footbridge for Moville "which was the envy of other areas and which will be completed before the end of the year".

The Donegal branch of the county also outlined a number of commitments delivered on including a 7.75 per cent drop in the Live Register this year; nine school building projects underway or in the pipeline; high speed broadband for secondary schools and 31 Donegal unfinished estates tackled last year.
The AGM also welcomed the €10m investment in the Wild Atlantic Way which was already reaping rewards. Meanwhile, well-known Greencastle man Seamus Bovaird has been elected chairman of the Donegal Labour.
Labour stalwart, Seamus Rodgers was elected honorary president.
The new committee is: chairman: Seamus Bovaird; vice-chairman: Sean McClafferty; secretary: Bridgetta Brogan; treasurer: Brian McCrea; PRO: Michael O’Boyle and equality officer: Barney McCaughey.
