Listen Back: LIS scheme waiting lists in Monaghan to get longer

People who have had their laneways resurfaced under the Local Improvement Scheme report back that the work is high-spec and very worthwhile.

The scheme known as LIS, gives a grant for farm families to have the laneways to their property upgraded. This year, the government announced it was going to relax the eligibility criteria.

250 farmers in County Monaghan registered for LIS In 2024 but then, state funding for the scheme was reduced by 40 per cent. Fianna Fáil Monaghan County Councillor PJ O'Hanlon told Zoe Tunney it doesn't make sense.
