MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, June 25, 2013

QUESTION NO. 11

QUESTION: Councillor C. Jones

"To ask the Manager to explain the issues regarding the current lack of television cable service provision (UPC is usual provider) at Mount Gandon and to explain SDCC's Planning role to assist with solving the issue?"

REPLY:

The provision of a television cable service is not a  planning matter. The erection of television antennae and television satellite dishes within dwelling houses are exempted development insofar as there is compliance with the conditions and limitations contained in Class four of the Schedule two Part 1 of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001 (as amended). The actual provision of cable television service is a private matter.
