On Your Behalf hears from the caravanners who’ve been
told to hitch up and get off their site!
The row over a caravan site in Donegal has been rumbling on for weeks now. The situation has developed because of a long standing planning problem at a site at Dundoun near Downings. It’s been ruled that the site is illegal - the caravanners have been told to get their mobile homes off the site by the end of April - and last month a Donegal Circuit Judge ordered four caravan site owners to be taken to Mountjoy Prison for their failure to have the caravans removed before now!

Outraged mobile home owners picketed a meeting of Donegal County Council in protest and the matter may go to the High Court. On Your Behalf looks at what legal rights and redress they may have, and talks to one of the caravanners.
