Kevin Skelly (53) died at Beaumont Hospital in Dublin on May 9, 2022 from injuries he had sustained six weeks earlier on his farm at Carrickboy, Co Longford.

Fine Gael's Paul Ross says the current site is in a heavily secluded area, beside a sewage treatment plant.

Frank Kilbride of Aughakilmore, Ballinalee in Longford was charged with and plead guilty to three charges under money laundering legislation in January.

The party secured three out of the five seats in the constituency with Cllrs Garry Murtagh, Paraic Brady and Padraig McNamara all elected.

They received the money under Farm Assist or the Rural Social Scheme.

Non residential properties such as businesses or industry saw the highest drain on the grid locally last year.

Micheál Carrigy says that prosecution of those who don't pay the licence is the last thing the Government want.

The local election count in Longford took place over three days at St Mary's Community Centre in Edgeworthstown.
