"In light of the under-provision of support services for children with autism in the Community Care Organisation 7 area (which covers Lucan) this committee agrees to write to the Ministers for Health and Education calling on them to increase investment in staff resources at the early intervention team in Rosscourt; to increasing funding for special autism units across the area; and to increase investment in teacher supports and Special Needs Assistants to support children with autism and related special needs."
That this Committee requests that the Chief Executive examines the possibility of re-introducing funding for the Estates Management projects that were previously in operation in areas of the Tallaght South LEA. Included in this review would be discussions with other organisations that could be in a position to manage the project with funding from the Council, such as the South Dublin County Partnership. This Motion recognises the value of the contribution of these Estate Managers in issues such as tenanting policy, surrender of houses, local knowledge on anti-social behaviour issues etc.
"This Committee agrees to invite Dr. Cornelia Munteanu, Senior Social Work Practitioner, Rosscourt Resource Centre to give members of the Lucan Area Committee a briefing on the provision of support services for children and families in the Lucan Area in advance of the next available area committee meeting."
"This Committee calls on the Chief Executive to bring forward plans to build a Council house on the land between 3 Rowlagh Gardens and 10 Rowlagh Park within a reasonable time."
