MAG will be holding a number of Information Evenings on the Defective Concrete Blocks Scheme in the coming weeks at venues around the county starting next Monday September 11 7pm at Malin Head Community Centre.
It follows a successful public meeting in An Grianan Hotel in Burt on July 24.
As well as MAG providing an overview of the scheme, they will be joined by guest speakers from the Redress Focus Group on Banking & Insurance who will relate important information that all affected by this crisis need to be aware of.
Following a brief presentation, they will take questions from homeowners.
Lisa Hone Chairperson of MAG said she hopes the meetings will prove useful, informative and will also explain to people how they can help themselves, their wider community and the campaign by taking some practical actions.
“There was a huge response to the Information Evening held at the An Grianan Hotel in Burt on July 24th and we felt that it was vital that we follow up with further opportunities for all impacted homeowners to attend an information meeting locally.
“Due to the concerns that persist with regard to the science, finance, exclusions and support for impacted homeowners, which we clearly set out in our statement to the Oireachtas Housing Committee on July 13 2023, MAG does not endorse the scheme as it stands.
“The DCB Scheme is, however, the only option homeowners currently have, and we acknowledge the many enquiries from homeowners requesting information on how it works.
“All are welcome,” said Ms Hone.
The calendar of meetings is as follows:
Monday September 11 at 7pm in Malin Head Community Centre.
Tuesday September 19 at 7pm in Ray Community Centre.
Thursday September 28 at 7pm in Greencastle Community Centre.
Monday October 2 at 7pm in Jackson’s Hotel, Ballybofey.
Tuesday October 10 at 7pm in Station House Hotel, Letterkenny.
Monday October 16 at 7pm in Inishowen Gateway Hotel, Buncrana
