Does the rural pub need to be protected?

Rural pubs have fallen in the past 20 years with more than 2,000 pubs closing their doors. It is believed that a further 1,000 are due to face the same fate in the next decade, with little to no government intervention to help them stay open… Have local pubs in your area closed down, and what can be done to help them stay open? Joining Andrea to discuss is Offaly TD, Cllr John Clendennen, Co-owner of Charlie’s Bar in Enniskillen, Una Burns, Owner of JJ Hough's, Ger Hough Conor O’Neill from The Glyde Inn and CEO of Irish Rural Link, Seamus Boldan.
