Irish Water needs offices in Castlebar and Kilkenny why?
— Ronan Lupton (@ronanlupton) July 31, 2013
An Taoiseach Enda Kenny welcomed the news that one of the Irish Water offices would be located in Castlebar. “I welcome the decision by Irish Water to locate one of their eight regional offices in Castlebar. This particular office will, together with others in Cavan and Donegal, help to increase the efficiency of the provision of water services right across the Connacht/Ulster region. This is about creating a world-class water system for Ireland and Castlebar is now set to be positioned at the heart of that,” he said.

Stone has been in prison since an attack at Stormont in 2006, when he was found guilty of attempting to murder Sinn Féin members Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness.
Stone had previously failed in a bid to get his conviction overturned, claiming the incident was “performance art“.
He will now serve the 18 years remaining on his 30 year sentence for the Milltown attack, after he completes his 16 year sentence for the assassination bid on the nationalist politicians.
