A Sligo councillor is calling for an assessment to be made of the drainage situation in a north Sligo cemetery.
It's in Ahamlish Cemetery, where inadequate drainage is causing graves to be flooded, resulting in distress to families of those burying loved ones.
Recently, a burial had to be delayed until pumps had removed water from a grave.
Fine Gael Councillor Thomas Walsh says it's a totally unacceptable situation.
