A Dublin Councillor has asked Minister Eamon Ryan to "leave our Christmas lights alone" after the Green Party leader failed to rule out that they wouldn't be affected this winter.
Earlier this week the Minister was asked about this year’s Christmas lights for cities, towns and villages across the country, and said it is something the Government will "come back to" later in the year. He added: "I think local authorities are starting to look at that, they’re starting to consider every measure, but we’re not being prescriptive at that level yet."
The Greens’ leader also hinted that State-owned buildings like schools and libraries could see the lights dimmed and the heat turned down this winter to save money on light and heat.
