Kelly to speak at credit crunch debate


Following recent hikes in diesel, electricity and gas on top of food price increases a major public debate will be held in North Belfast to discuss how hard the economic credit crunch is affecting already cash-strapped homes here.
The event at the Lansdowne Hotel has been organised by the Future Together Initiative (FTI) to illustrate the depth of concern in the community.
Among the speakers including will be North Belfast Sinn Féin MLA Gerry Kelly, Chief Executive of the Consumer Council Eleanor Gill and former independent chair of the Water Tax Review Professor Paddy Hillyard.
Irene Sherry of the FTI said it is reassuring that Northern Executive Minister Gerry Kelly is keen to listen to the concerns of all.
The public debate takes place on Thursday June 19 at 7pm and everyone is invited to attend. More information is available from Irene Sherry 90221022 or John Loughran 9035 2165.
