Retained firefighters across the county have resumed strike action over recruitment and retention issues.
Following a meeting held on Tuesday in Liberty Hall, SIPTU Public Administration and Community Divisional Organiser, Karan O'Loughlin, said: "Over 2,000 retained fire fighters are on strike seeking improved and more secure pay and conditions with more structured time off. The full strike has been running for a week now, with stations only responding to life-threatening incidents and 50% of stations off the run at any one time.
