Statement by Tom Enright, Chief Executive following decision by Council to take no further action in relation to SIPO Report - Friday 14th January, 2022

I welcome that the Elected Members of Wexford County Council have today decided that no action will be taken in relation to the findings in the SIPO report published last week.

I wish to state again that I regret the tone of the two e-mails sent to South East Radio.  However, I was standing up to the radio station who were shown to have  breached the Broadcasting Act and who I was informed were acting in a deliberately biased manner against the Council.

I am very passionate for the work that Council staff and Councillors do to make County Wexford a better place and some of that passion overflowed into these two e-mails.

I cannot thank people enough for their support during this time.  I have been overwhelmed and humbled by the large outpouring of support.  Hundreds of messages of support, many from people I don’t even know and have never met. 

The Council should have a good and constructive working relationship with our local radio station and we intend to look to put a Service Level Agreement in place with South East Radio to facilitate an improved relationship into the future.

I am pleased that I can now draw a line under this matter and concentrate fully on leading the important work and priorities of the Council including the delivery of essential public services, social and affordable housing, supporting communities in the fight against Covid-19 and the continued roll-out of our ambitious community and economic development programme.

ENDS
