Taoiseach questioned on CIE pensions after city protest

The Taoiseach has been questioned on issues around CIE pensions, following a protest in the city this week.

Local CIE pensioners marched to Galway West TD John Connolly's office, and handed in a letter demanding an increase their payments.

They've had their payments frozen since 2008 - meaning the rates haven't changed in almost 20 years.

Fianna Fail Deputy Connolly has now raised the issue in the Dáil with Michéal Martin - who's indicated the problem is being sorted.
