East Wall protests postponed as Minister Roderic O'Gorman to meet with residents

Further protests at a former ESB building at East Wall are to be postponed as Minister Roderic O'Gorman has agreed to meet with local residents.

A series of protests have taken place this week over concerns about the use of the building as housing for asylum seekers. It has led to traffic disruption in the area during even rush hour as the road has been blocked off.

Protesters have said that their concerns are focused on the lack of consultation by the Government with locals, and safety concerns surrounding a fire certificate and planning permission. Residents are due to meet with the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth on Friday.
