January–April
[Heritage] There is concern with the direction being taken in the control and management of assets and resources across the county, in particular those we depend on both for local recreation and also for tourists. The viaduct in Borris was recently closed, permission for upgrading of the Barrow Development denied, if this continues then will we be hanging a closed sign at the entrance to the county?
Public Officials Lobbied
{'name': 'Email All Councillors', 'role': 'To express concern in relation to the direction Carlow is heading regarding the amenities and attractions we have across the county, if we continue along this current path then very soon we may just be known as the county where you can see but not experience. This situation needs to be reversed, and the message needs to be clear that Carlow is open for business and visitors.\nThe viaduct in Borris is the most recent example of closing off our amenities and attractions. The closure of the viaduct is not only affecting tourists to the area, the impact is more local as the area was regularly used and accessed by the local community. The decision on the Barrow Towpath Development by the County Council Planning department also sends a message about the region, to keep the towpath and all the barrow has to offer hidden should be considered a crime. The current towpath needs to have work carried out to ensure it is accessible to everyone, not just those who are able bodied.'} {'name': 'Fergal Browne', 'role': 'Councillor (Carlow County Council)'} {'name': 'John Cassin', 'role': 'Councillor (Carlow County Council)'} {'name': 'Jim Deane', 'role': 'Councillor (Carlow County Council)'} {'name': 'Michael Doran', 'role': 'Councillor (Carlow County Council)'} {'name': 'Denis Foley', 'role': 'Councillor (Carlow County Council)'} + 12 more

Most Lobbied TDs

Data Source
All lobbying data comes from the Regulation of Lobbying Register, maintained by the Standards in Public Office Commission under the Regulation of Lobbying Act 2015.

Lobbyists must file returns every 4 months. This tracker makes that data searchable by TD, policy domain, and subject — so you can see who is trying to influence the decisions that affect your life.
Why This Matters
Lobbying is legal and often legitimate. But when property developers lobby TDs who vote on housing policy, or when insurance companies lobby ministers setting regulation — you have a right to know. Transparency is accountability.
