The NIO has announced proposals to change compensation laws in Northern Ireland to make it easier for community halls that are attacked to gain compensation. The Orange Order in particular has been campaigning for this change for six years and it was part of the DUP demand list. However, the scheme will benefit the full range of community halls. UPDATE The UUP’s Tom Elliott wants the proposals to go further.
We are reader supported. Donate to keep Slugger lit!
For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.
Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.
If you like what we do, we are asking you to consider giving a monthly donation of any amount, or you can give a one-off donation. Any amount is appreciated.
