Limerick City councillor Ger Fahey is calling for an investigation into over 20 bonfires in the city. He claims that people are using bonfires as an excuse to dispose illegally of large items like matresses, and three piece suits. He also claimed that dangerous substances were being disposed of in bonfires.
