The event comes ahead of a Cork City Council meeting at 5.30pm
A protest calling for the reinstatement of the eviction ban will be held at Cork City Hall at 5pm today. The protest is being organised by the Cork Cost Of Living Campaign. The event comes ahead of a Cork City Council meeting at 5.30pm which will debate a motion calling for the reinstatement of the ban. The meeting will also take a report from the Council's Housing SPC on the preparedness of the Council for dealing with a post-ban wave of applications for emergency housing. Socialist Party TD Mick Barry today called on people who want to see the eviction ban reinstated to attend the 5pm protest. He said: "The Government are trying to hide behind a two week Dáil recess to dodge public pressure on the eviction ban issue. "It's important that the pressure is kept on them and I appeal to people who want to show opposition to the lifting of the ban to join the protest at City Hall this evening."
