Description

Charles Witherspoon reports from The Rock, outside Armagh where a terrible rat infestation is plaguing a young family. Andrew Donovan and his wife tell Charles about their terrible living conditions. The family have had no luck trying to get a new home and are getting no help from anyone. The conditions are horrendous. 

Mr Donovan later undertook a protest walk from Armagh to Stormont.
