Hide AdCllr Mackle said: “Sinn Féin have tabled a motion for Monday calling on the Council to seek immediate clarity from the British government on when people across our area will get the £600 energy payment.
“People are struggling to pay their bills. They could and should already have this payment. It’s unacceptable that the DUP’s cruel boycott of government and Tory incompetence has held up this payment,” said Cllr Mackle.
“We need an Executive formed now and local ministers working together to support workers and families with the rising cost of living.”
