It was a tale of two electoral areas at the Belmullet electoral area meeting this week, with the new Newport harbour bye-laws being placed as an item on the agenda for the meeting of the north Mayo councillors. Following the redrawing of the electoral areas in Mayo prior to last June’s local elections, the village of Newport was spilt in two with the bridge being the dividing line between the Westport area and the newly extended Belmullet area.

Bye-laws governing the harbour in Westport are set to be introduced, local politicians were told this week. The bye-laws will tackle many issues include the ongoing issue of an abandoned vessel in the area.
