Concern is being expressed that rural parts of East Clare still aren’t feeling the benefits of a major reduction in live register numbers here.
CSO figures reveal that in the space a month, 380 people came off the live register in Clare and entered the working world.
Yet only 37 of these have left dole queues in East Clare, the smallest reduction experienced in the county last month.

Former Clare Mayor and local Councillor, Fianna Fáil’s Pat Hayes, has been telling me that while it’s a positive sign to see the numbers go in the right direction, those in rural parts are still concerned.
