Decentralisation Programme: Statements.

 

Everything in Ireland has gone wrong in terms of planning. Everything is located in Dublin and that should not be the case. There is no need for it. Decentralisation has worked well in the past. Sections of the Department of Social and Family Affairs are based in Sligo, while the driving licences section of the Department of the Environment and Local Government is located in Ballina. When one drives through such towns during a Seanad election campaign, one can see the benefits of a Government Department being located there.
