In the hope to build back up the relationship with restaurants and gastro pubs across the country
Wexford Councillor Michael Sheehan's calling for a dedicated Junior Minister for 'the night-time economy'.
He says the next Government has a chance to re-set the relationship with restaurants and gastro pubs, in towns and villages across the country.
Councillor Sheehan says small businesses are struggling to stay open after 6pm, creating urban wastelands across Ireland.
