Island Ferries working on proposals to resolve ferry crisis

Island Ferries Teo is preparing a number of proposals to bring to the County Council in a bid to resolve an ongoing impasse over the Inis Mór ferry service.
The local authority is to meet with the ferry operators on Friday in the latest in a series of meetings over the beleaguered service.
The Island Ferries service ceased on Wednesday last week, and was due to remain out of action until March over issues including passenger levies.
However, it was temporarily reinstated on Friday following crunch talks between the company, the county council and the Department of the Gaeltacht.
As it stands, the ferry will run until January 4, when the service will be suspended again until mid-March.
County Council Chief Executive Kevin Kelly said efforts are continuing to find a permanent solution.
