Sligo County Councils Chief Executive, Martin Lydon, disputes the EPAs report on environmental enforcement, asserting Sligos performance is better than portrayed. Councillor Ann Higgins raised concerns about Sligos failure to meet national enforcement goals in household and commercial waste, agricultural inspections, air quality monitoring, and environmental noise. The EPA report cited issues like missing paperwork, insufficient follow-up actions, and lack of regular inspections. Despite resource constraints, Sligo Council is recruiting new staff, and Lydon confirms they now have adequate resources for effective environmental protection.
