A West Clare Councillor says loopholes in the new short-term let register need to be ironed out. Cabinet yesterday approved new legislation which requires all short-term lets providing accommodation in periods of up to 21 days to register with Fáilte Ireland. Properties will be required to have the appropriate planning permission and can be fined a fixed payment of €300 if found to be operating without a registration number. Kilkee Fianna Fáil Councillor, Cillian Murphy, and Lahinch Green Party Councillor, Liam Grant, have been speaking to Clare FM's Morning Focus.
