Outdoor fires place significant demands on fire services. Noting the dry conditions in recent days, we’re concerned about the potential for outdoor fires – exercise care with barbecues and any fires out of doors. Burning vegetation on land at this time of year is prohibited.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Ireland were laid off in March. But rent supplement applications barely moved. Tenants: if you’ve lost your job, you should look at applying for rent supplement. thetimes.co.uk/article/f29fd…
