Councillors are split over the prospect of live streaming County Council meetings to the public.
During a meeting at County Hall this week, the cost of live streaming was a key focus point.
The chamber was split on the issue - with some councillors believing it's an unnecessary cost that would slow down their meetings.
But Tuam councillor Karey McHugh Farag thinks it’s important to bring some transparency to what they do.
While Loughrea councillor Shane Curley believes it could encourage greater engagement with local government.
On the other hand, Fine Gael councillor Andrew Reddington believes the money would be better spent elsewhere.
