FOLLOWING their meeting with Bank of Ireland (BoI) management over the upcoming closures of some branches, Fermanagh and Omagh District councillors have described the decision to close the Lisnaskea BoI branch as “yet another attack on rural Fermanagh”. On Friday, April 16, Sinn Féin’s Sheamus Greene, UUP councillor Victor Warrington, Alliance councillor Stephen Donnelly, and Independent Emmet McAleer met online with officials from the bank to discuss the Lisnaskea branch, that is due to be closed down on July 7. In a statement, Councillor Greene pointed out that the closure will leave only one BoI branch in the whole of Fermanagh, and said it is a “cold, calculated decision” which is not for the good of the bank’s rural customers in Fermanagh.
