Garda Station opening hours petition

Boyle Right2Water and Anti-Austerity group and concerned locals, will be assisting local General election candidate, Eddie Conroy, this Saturday, gathering signatures against the reduction in hours at Boyle Garda Station.

In a statement the group say “Every week now, we’re hearing more and more stories of serious crimes being committed in rural areas.

Boyle needs a full time police service.

Numerous break-ins were reported in recent weeks around Boyle”.

 

If anyone would like to assist us with collecting signatures on Saturday, please call in to a quick meeting in Mattimoe’s Bar on Thursday evening at 8pm.

Alternatively phone Eddie on 087 1417404 to express your interest in helping out.

We will be organising teams to gather the signatures at  various points, simultaneously.

Some retailers in Boyle have already got firmly behind the petition.

We would hope that more local business people will be very positive and pro-active, towards the initiative and take a copy of the petition into their premises to gather as many names as possible.
