Kilcullen Mart in RTE marts story

Kilcullen's Leinster Marts operation was the background on RTE News today in a story about marts being allowed to facilitate animals sales in restricted circumstances, writes Brian Byrne.

The station's Agriculture & Consumer Affairs Correspondent Fran McNulty outlined the protocols agreed last night that will allow a limited range of services from the marts at the traditionally busiest time of the year.

They can match buyers and sellers and provide weighing of animals. No public auctions will be held, and no crowds are allowed attend.

The new measures took effect this morning. Leinster Marts operates in Kilcullen on Wednesdays.
