Cllr Conlon highlighted the major demand that came with the Affordable Purchase Scheme in Monaghan Town which was rolled out earlier in the year.

He said it's important for this scheme to be just as successful, adding that there is a strong need for housing of this kind, however that need must be represented in numbers and interest in order for funding to be allocated.

Speaking to Northern Sound, Cllr Conlon has encouraged anyone who is interested to come to today's event and find out more about the scheme.
