The Government has been accused of snubbing Sligo in an announcement of extra policing hours and Garda resources for the Capital.




In recent days, it was confirmed by Justice Minister Helen McEntee that an additional 240 thousand policing hours are being allocated to Gardai to ensure a more visible presence in Dublin city centre at a cost of 10 million euro.




It follows the recent assault on a US tourist, for which three teenagers have been charged.

Local People Before Profit Cllr Gino O'Boyle has been questioning where the 10 million for Sligo is at a time when crime is clearly at an all-time high in town and the number of frontline Gardai have been decimated in the region:
