    Georgian Houses

    Last February, as part of the Finance Bill, Government announced a ‘Living City’ pilot project aimed at helping to breathe life back into parts of Georgian Limerick and Waterford. The incentives announced mean that residents can claim tax relief for refurbishment costs of their historic buildings, while there will be similar tax breaks for work carried out on retail units within the designated areas of each city. Brian O’Connell visited Waterford and Limerick in recent weeks to try and find out more about this scheme and he joined Pat this morning.

    They were a vital link home for decades, and helped Irish communities outside the republic of Ireland stay in touch with home. They told communities who had died, what the economic prospects in their native land were and whether they might be able to return home anytime soon. The current wave of emigration should mean then that newspapers outside the republic of Ireland, such as the Irish Voice in New York or the Irish Post in London, are thriving, but, with the digital revolution, many Irish newspapers outside of the republic of Ireland are facing an uncertain future.

    Fostering and why the Referendum result will have a huge impact for some foster parents.

    There was a strong reaction from the fostering community in the past week when Irish Times columnist John Waters highlighted the financial benefits of fostering as a motivating factor for many would be foster parents. Some took this to mean that they were in it solely for the money.

    Close to 90,000 persons left Ireland in the year to April 2012, leading some to comment that we are experiencing near Famine levels of emigration. It is estimated that some 200 emigrants per day are leaving these shores and for those who made it home for Christmas, the past few days saw many of our emigrants return to their lives overseas. Brian O’Connell spent time this week in both Shannon and Cork Airports and talked in particular to the families who accompanied their departing loved ones to these airports and he joins us now from Cork.
