A Clare county councillor claims the rules around interruptions at meetings need to be revised following an incident this week. At the June meeting of Ennis Municipal District, Councillor Tommy Guilfoyle was prevented by Mayor of Ennis Clare Colleran-Molloy from finishing a point of clarity he was making concerning the use of taxation revenue to fund water services. After Councillor Guilfoyle claimed the Mayor doesn't have "the authority" to cut a point of clarity short, Ennis MD Senior Engineer Seán Lenihan said points of clarity are "at the discretion of the chair". The Sinn Féin representative believes the interruption by his Fianna Fáil colleague was politically motivated but says he's no stranger to such clashes.
