 REPORT:

The Code of conduct for the Election posters was adopted as the official code of South Dublin County Council in relation to election posters at monthly Council meeting held in February 2012.

As a voluntary code, the implementation of the code is a matter for political parties and candidates for elections.

This code has been operating successfully at the request of the Tidy Towns committee in Lucan for a number of years and has been welcomed by the new Tidy Towns Committees in other areas of the county.
