Muslim burial space at Tuam cemetery will not impact future expansion plans

Plans for a dedicated muslim burial space at Tuam cemetery will not impact on future expansion plans.

That was the message delivered by Galway County Council at a meeting of local councillors this week.

The plans have been in motion for a number of years, and it's now expected the area to be designated will be revealed in the coming weeks.

Councillors will then vote on the proposal.
