MOTION NO. 19

MOTION: Councillor C. Jones

That this Committee expresses its satisfaction that the Department of Education & Skills agreed to my request to house a permanent pre-school facility within the plans for a new school build at Esker Lane. Further that this Committee calls on the Council’s Planning Department to liaise with representatives from Esker Educate Together, Naíonra Clann Lir and the Department of Education with a view to making provision for a preschool that will facilitate the Irish and English speakers in nearby schools.

REPORT:

The Council is in principle generally supportive of the provision of crèche/ preschool developments subject to amongst other things issues of size, location and traffic implications would have to considered.  If there are particular proposals for the provision of a crèche/ preschool facility a pre-planning meeting would be facilitated.
