Concerns have been raised locally about the potential impact on sporting and recreational facilities at St Flannan's College if plans proceed to relocate St Joseph's Hospital onto lands associated with the college.

A motion before this month's meeting of the Ennis Municipal District is calling for greater clarity, public engagement and assurances that important community amenities and sporting infrastructure will be protected.

Joining Alan Morrissey to discuss the issue are Clare Colleran Molloy, the Ennis Fianna Fáil Councillor who submitted the motion, and the Clarecastle Sinn Fein Councillor, Tommy Guilfoyle.
