Published: 14 August, 2009

Sinn Féin councillor Terry Hearty has welcomed the news that the DSS office in Crossmaglen has again opened on a full time basis.

Cllr Hearty said,

"The people of South Armagh refused to accept the cuts to services in our community and lobbied the minister to overturn her department's decision.

"I welcome this decision to return this service to the people of this area and would call on Ms. Ritchie to ensure that such cuts in services do not take place again in the future."
