Intended results To inform the relevant TDs that at a meeting convened with the VFI and other interested parties Minister Ross accepted the view that issues such as loneliness and closure of rural pubs will be exacerbated by the introduction of proposed legislation. The VFI is extremely disappointed the Minister and his department had no proposals, possible solutions or ideas to address these issues. He called on those present to solve the issues themselves.
