"That recommendation No 10 becomes the starting point for a discussion on Management Companies to take place at a joint meeting of the Planning & Housing special policy committees. The recent policy adopted by Fingal CC should be included as part of the presentation on a draft policy. Given that the Council does not even have the names of the Management Company Directors as per the Planning Permission, again it is clear that resources are needed in this area and this might dovetail with the unit as proposed in Motion No 17."
