Sinn Fein host online public meeting this evening on Bank of Ireland closures in Mayo Published: Monday, 08 March 2021 12:51
One week on from the announcement that Bank of Ireland is to close three branches in Co Mayo, Deputy Rose-Conway Walsh and her Sinn Fein colleague Councillor Gerry Murray are hosting an online public meeting this evening, calling for the Bank of Ireland branches to remain open in Ballyhaunis, Charlestown and Kiltimagh.
Deputy Conway-Walsh says keeping these branches open is crucial for the local communities, and she believes the Bank of Ireland- which was bailed out by the Irish people - should not be closing local branches during a pandemic.

A Mayo Deputy is calling for a risk assessment to be carried out on providing respite for carers where the person being cared for has been vaccinated.
Sinn Fein TD Rose Conway-Walsh says all the staff in the care setting have been vaccinated and all the residents in the care home or district hospital have been vaccinated.
She says this is now a real humanitarian issue.
Carers are crumbling with the pressure of not having had a break for over a year.
Deputy Conway-Walsh says one carer told her she can t even bring her children for a walk as the person she is caring for is 86 and has dementia and needs 24 hour care.
