No hackneys for drug dealers
Following a meeting with Lower Crumlin Combined Community Group
and management of a Dolphins Barn based hackney company has
agreed to instruct its drivers not to carry known drug dealers.
Earlier this year the company in Dublin's South inner city was
the target of anti-drugs pickets organised by the LCCCG.
Brian Kenna, LCCCG spokesperson, said ``this agreement is very
welcome and is part of the ongoing battle against the pushers.
The situation will be monitored by the community and it is hoped
that other similar companies in the area will co-operate in the
same way''.
Brian added that ``the situation in the Lower Crumlin, Dolphins
Barn area with regard to the open sale of drugs has improved in
the last six months and the community group is intent that it
will not revert back to the way it was''.
