"With regard to the issue of council properties being damage as a result of vehicle impact. An example in case, such as Garden walls being demolished due a road traffic incident.

Does the council have a policy to seek redress for damage from the drivers insurance or in the case of a uninsured driver from the motor insurance bureau of Ireland (MIBI)?

If not, can the council explain why such redress is not sought and if it is a case that they do, are the funds dedicated to the repair of the damage caused?"

• Q 11

"Can the Council give permission to Clondalkin Tidy Towns to begin to transform public utility boxes and Council owned containers/ changing rooms by painting murals on them.  The Dublin Canvas project has been very successful in the City Council areas.   CTT are ready to proceed with this type of initiative but want to be sure that they have the permission to do so.  Can this be given please?"

"This committee resolves that the council would support the work of the Friends of the Camac group.  This group is being supported by the Waters and Communities organisation and hopes to improve the Camac River in Clondalkin in a number of ways.  One of their projects is the cleaning up of the mill ponds in Clondalkin Park with the erection of proper fencing to allow for better viewing of this very rich eco system.  Could a report be prepared in relation to how the various departments in the council might assist this group. "

"This committee resolves that the Community Space which was designated for community use when the apartments on Orchard Road were built and which has lain empty in the years since then would be allocated without delay to the Clondalkin men's shed.  The Men's Shed have agreed to facilitate the use of this space by other community groups such as active retired and meals on wheels.  The ongoing stalemate in relation to this space makes a mockery of the practice of designating spaces for community use and this must be addressed."
