Tired: Mayor McGarvey had chaired 3 days of talks
1.25AM Latest Update: Donegal politicians will hold another meeting of crisis-hit Donegal County Council in a last ditch attempt to save the council from dissolution.
Director of Service Liam Ward had advised councillors they can return on January 13.
Independent Councillor John Campbell said he wanted the council to meet again.
But Sinn Fein councillor Mick Quinn insisted: “There is no point in coming back on January 13. There is little or no possibility of any flexibility in terms of additional resources.”
Cllr Ciaran Brogan of Fianna Fail insisted: “We can’t fool ourselves that anything is going to change but if there is a window then we should look at it.”
Fianna Fail, Fine Gael, Labour and independents voted to return to have yet another meeting.
Liam Ward told councillors: “The council has resolved to adjourn this meeting to Monday January 13 at 11am.”
However the move appears to be just a stay of execution – and our dissolved council could be run from Dublin within days.
