MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, September 13, 2010

QUESTION NO. 28

QUESTION: Councillor E. Tuffy

To ask the Manager if he will advise the meeting of the new arrangements which have been implemented to accommodate the County Enterprise Board and if there have beren any new developments in the relationship between the Board and the Council?

REPLY:

The Council has recently entered into a licence agreement with the County Enterprise Board for vacant office space at County Hall (previously Property Path) for a period up to but not longer than three years.  The licence is renewable on a month to month basis for a period not to exceed three years.   The Licensee supports the operation of the IEZ initiative by the provision of CEB advice and mentoring to participants equivalent to  2 hours per week, availability to be aggregated and utilised as required over the duration of the agreement.

Members will also be aware that the CEB is represented on the steering committee for the IEZ project. These linkages will be further developed on a regional basis with the project now being progressed in the Dublin region by the Regional Authority.
