MOTION NO. 11

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

"Can the Chief Executive advise what elements “1916-2016” are being incorporated into the Lucan Village Scheme."

REPORT:

"South Dublin County's Centenary Programme was officially launched on the 2nd December 2015 in County Hall, Tallaght in association with the Ireland 2016 Project Team. Following submissions and extensive consultations a Commemorations Programme was developed and then presented to and approved by the elected members at the Council Meeting held in October 2015. It was agreed that the Village Initiative would facilitate where appropriate the delivery of these elements.The programme approved by the Council members did not,however, include a commemorations element in Lucan Village.

Within the programme there are a number of events scheduled to take place in the Lucan/Palmerstown Area and nine applicants from the Lucan/Palmerstown Electoral Area were successful in receiving funding to deliver commemoration events/initiatives at local level."
