Tourist attractions popular with Limerick people to come under control of Clare County Council
A TOURIST attraction popular with Limerick people will soon be under the control of Clare County Council.
Clare County Council has received a financial support package from government to facilitate the transfer of the Clare assets of Shannon Heritage from Shannon Airport Group (SAG) to the Local Authority.
The multi-annual support package will be presented to elected members of Clare County Council for their consideration in the coming days.
Discussions between Clare County Council, SAG and Department officials regarding regulatory issues are ongoing.
A statement from the local authority read: "Clare County Council wishes to acknowledge the cooperation of government in working with the local authority and SAG to enable the proposed transfer.
"Clare County Council also acknowledges that Bunratty, Craggaunowen, Knappogue and the Cliffs of Moher gift shop are integral to the overall tourism product offering in Clare."
A further statement will be issued following the meeting of elected members.
