It's feared casual traders could be damaging the viability of permanent businesses in Clare. Fianna Fáil Councillor Tom O'Callaghan has this week called on the local authority to review of its policy in relations to Casual Trading Licences which are permits granted to the likes of food truck operators and stallholders. There are 12 designated casual trading areas in Clare, namely the Ennis Market area, Ballyalla Lake, Ennistymon Town Centre, Doolin Pier, Fanore, Kildysart Square, Kilfenora Square, Killaloe Car Park, the Square in Kilkee, Miltown Malbay, Drumgeely in Shannon and Tulla. Councillor Tom O'Callaghan says he wants to be sure that all casual traders are fully compliant with the law.
