Sinn Fein TD Sorca Clarke believes the State is underfunding county councils.

Excuses and broken promises - that's all the government has to offer when it comes to vacant houses according to Sinn Fein.

Figures obtained by the party show there's 43 vacant council homes in Westmeath from a total stock of 2,362.

The figure in Laois is 31 from a total of 2,488.

Offaly County Council is one of three local authorities yet to provide information.

Longford-Westmeath TD for Sinn Fein, Sorca Clarke says she's in no doubt as to who's at fault:
