Kerry County Council will receive €2.5 million in funding from the Government to cover rising energy costs next year.
Councillors Aoife Thornton, Breandán Fitzgerald and Patrick O’Connor-Scarteen all brought motions before the monthly meeting of the council.

All councillors agreed additional funding was crucial to maintain essential services.
Kerry County Council says while the €2.5 million is welcome, it will require further support from Government during 2023, given the current operating environment.
