Addendum to 1.3.3.iii Older People - paragraph now to read (addendum in italics);

1.3.3.iii Older People

South Dublin County has a small, but growing, number of older people. The proportion of the population aged 65 and over increased from 6.3% in 2002 to 7.2% in 2006. The Housing Strategy proposes to cater for this group with the continued provision of appropriate housing including sheltered housing close to community facilities and public transport. Good design is also important in creating a safe and barrier-free environment which is easily negotiable by older people. It is furthermore the policy of the Council to ensure adequate development of appropriate commercial and community facilities and public transport in population centres with higher proportions of older people.
