Galway firefighters concerned over leave, equipment and working conditions

Galway Bay fm newsroom - Galway firefighters say they're concerned over leave, working conditions and the way the service is managed.

More than a dozen uniformed fire fighters have marched from the fire station at Fr. Griffin Road to County Hall at Prospect Hill to hand in a letter of protest.

But Simon Boot, an organiser of the march, wants to assure people that the marchers came while off duty and services are un-interrupted.

It's the second time they've undertaken a march this year.

Some claim they're working with substandard equipment, while others say they have not been able to take holidays due to them for a number of years.
