Rock takes on the ticket touts before Ireland game

Fine Gael Dublin North West TD Noel Rock has taken on and confronted ticket touts in advance of this weekend’s eagerly anticipated international rugby match. Demand to see Ireland play England at the sold out Aviva stadium has seen prices sky rocket, with touts charging punters up to €1,000 a ticket for Saturday's game.

The Government has released €12M for the next stage of works on the N56, Minister Joe McHugh has announced today. The Donegal TD has also announced the completion of the latest phase of works, the €11.5M route from Boyoughter to Kilkenny stretch of the N56. “I am delighted to announce the completion of Phase 2 of the upgrade of the N56 at Gweebarra,” said Minister McHugh.
