LMFM By Ruth O'Connell Sinn Féin Cllr. Tomás Sharkey wants Louth County Council's housing policy to be re-examined The Dundalk Municipal District is to write to Louth County Council's Housing Strategic Policy Committee to highlight that the area accounts for half of the housing needs in the county. Sinn Féin Cllr. Tomás Sharkey made the proposal at the municipal district's monthly meeting yesterday evening, arguing that after COVID-19, it's the biggest crisis affecting people in County Louth with one in every two social housing applicants and half of those being placed in temporary emergency accommodation living in the Dundalk Municipal District.
