The following is a statement issued this morning by Boyle Chamber of Commerce in response to the job losses at the Roscommon Herald:
“Boyle Chamber of Commerce note with concern the announcement yesterday of job losses at the Roscommon Herald. This is particularly disappointing news in the context of the commitments made in recent months by many local businesses to advertising in the newspaper. At a time when a number of new businesses are opening in our town and coming at a busy Easter weekend of exciting events in the Boyle area, it is especially important that our local newspaper does not lose the hard working journalists, photographers and other staff who have so well served this community over many years”
