Kilkenny County Council has hit out at people who are leaving their rubbish all over public amenity areas in the city during the current spell of good weather.

"Unfortunately, it was recently left in a condition that is not acceptable. We have reported this matter to the Gardai. These social areas are meant to be welcoming places for people to gather with their loved ones and appreciate the surroundings. We cannot tolerate antisocial behaviour of this nature.

"We are grateful to the Kilkenny City Area team who have promptly cleaned and addressed this issue. We sincerely hope that we won't witness any further incidents like this. We invite you to come and visit these spaces, taking the opportunity to enjoy them. We kindly request that you take your litter home with you when you're finished."
