Elected councillors will write to the Irish Naval Service to formally propose twinning Dingle and a naval vessel.

It follows a motion at the recent Castleisland-Corca Dhuibhne MD meeting, by Fianna Fáil councillor, Breandán Fitzgerald.

He said there is a long historical connection between Dingle Port and the Naval and Marine Services.

The town was previously twinned with the LE Orla vessel, until it was decommissioned in 2022.

Cllr Fitzgerald urged the council to write to the naval service proposing twinning the town with the LE George Bernard Shaw.

The motion was seconded by Sinn Féin councillor Robert Brosnan.
