The ESB has said that supply should be back to the vast majority of homes today.  However, any homes that find they still do not have electricity at that stage are asked to contact the ESB on 1850372999. 

Some homes may experience temporary disruptions to supply as the company deals with other issues as they arise.

In the meantime the ESB is still concerned by broken or low hanging wires which they say may still be live. 

People are asked not to approach these wires but to contact the ESB.

The company has also issued a warning for farmers who may have animals that are startled easily as helicopters will be patrolling high voltage lines over the cming days. 

The ESB wishes to thank its customers for threir patience and understanding while electricity supplies have been interupted. 

All TDs throughout Co Tipperary are to be asked to give their support to a campaign to prevent the loss of one of two ambulances that serve Cashel.

Plans are said to be underway to remove one of the town's ambulances which are based at Our Lady's Hospital in the town.

A public meeting was held last night on the matter and it was decided that a committee would be formed to progress the campaign, while all TDs in North and South Tipperary will be called upon to add their support to the effort.

It was also said last night that a High Court agreement, which stated that the two ambulances would remain operating from the hospital when acute services were withdrawn, still applies.
