Mica Action Group intends to set up political party

The Mica Action Group says it intends to set up a political party.

Campaigners say homeowners affected by the crumbling block scandal are being ignored by politicians and won't allow it continue any longer.

Activists have issue with the so-called 100 percent redress scheme which is capped at 420,000 euro.

Homes in four counties - Mayo, Donegal, Clare and Limerick - are covered by the scheme which is worth 2.7 billion euro.
