A Pitch For SALTHILL DEVON

Unemployed may be entitled to reduced rates
G A L W A Y Corporation is t o consider a s p e c i a l s c h e m e o f r e d u c e d rates f o r t h e Westside a n d Renmore Community Centres a n da t Leisureland f o r t h e u n w a g e d section o fthis area. Senator Michael D . Higgins, w h omade t h e proposal at t h e recent Borough Council, pointed out that m a n y o f the u n e m p l o y e d felt t h e public amenities w e r e outside their financial reach. 'There is a form of quiet exclusion' said the Senator. H e regretted, but nevertheless acknowledged as a fact, that there were many people who were disadvantaged by income who were denied access to public facilities. T h e Council generally agreed. Cllr. Micheal OhUigginn, while not cribbing about the sentiments, said it was becoming increasingly difficult to differentiate between a family of four who were working and one that was not. T h e level of P AY E and other taxes h a d greatly reduced families' spendspending power, he said. T h e City Manager, Mr. Peter Kearns, said there were already reductions for clubs, s c o u t s , associations and so o n but he would look into if such a scheme could be introduced.
