Cathaoirleach's Business

That this Committee requests the Manager to write to the Minister for Social and Family Affairs and requests that a suitable and adequate local welfare Office be opened in Lucan. As local unemployment figures soar, Lucan residents continue to be inconvenienced by having to travel to register in the Welfare Office in Clondalkin. In addition the small sign-on centre in Lucan Village is totally inadequate and is currently only opened three days per month. This office is so small Lucan Residents often have to queue outside in the rain and cold weather. I have written to the Minister for Social and Family Affairs requesting that a suitable Welfare Office be opened in Lucan that at least will help avoid this level of inconvenience for Lucan Residents. Unless the Minister intervenes, this inconvenience will only worsen. The Manager of the Clondalkin Welfare Office has informed me that over 300 new people are visiting the Clondalkin Office each week. That number is expected to increase.

To compliment Management for the work to date and to ask the Manager for an update on the removal of graffiti and rubbish from the back lanes of Palmerstown and to  report in particular on the passage leading from the Covert to Kennelsfort Road?  This area is a terrible eye sore and most depressing for the many pedestrians who use it on a daily basis; the laneway to the rear of Wheatfield Road/Oak Court Estate and the laneway to the rear of Glenmaroon Road/Palmerstown and the laneway between Palmerstown Avenue and the N4 including the shrubbery along the N4.
