Letters from locals over Dublin city centre laneway tell of open drug use and public sex

Councillors on Monday voted to close public access to the Harbour Court laneway in Dublin.

Letters from the public detail harrowing stories of open drug use, human excrement, stenches of urine and public sex.

The laneway has been the focus of local concerns for years.

One business owner said they have been dealing with issues in the laneway since the late 1980s.

Private patients receive 55% less subsidy funding compared to patients in the public sector.
