A Sinn Fein councillor has urged councillors to back proposals that would add almost £70,000 to a hardship fund created to ease the cost of living crisis in Derry.
Derry City and Strabane District Council's outgoing Deputy Mayor, Christopher Jackson, said the fund could be boosted by almost £70,000 under a proposal to be voted on this Tuesday (June 6).
Cllr Jackson said: “End of year reports show that the Council now has £68,000 in funding which can still be utilised."
