Four new fire appliances are set to be deployed to the North West.
Two are being allocated to Donegal while Sligo and Leitrim are to get one each.
Minister for Housing and Local Government Darragh O’Brien has announced a national allocation of almost €21 million to equip Local Authority Fire and Rescue Services with 40 new fire appliances.
Class B’ fire appliances are the first appliances mobilised to all incidents.
They generally carry 1,800 litres of water, have a main pump built in and carry equipment including a selection of hoses, ladders, breathing apparatus equipment, hydraulic cutting equipment, chimney fire equipment and first aid equipment.
