Cathaoirleach's Business

"Following an attack at Knockmeenagh Lane/St Brigid’s Cottages we call for the area to be cleared and camera installed as a matter of urgency."

REPORT:

It is understood that there was an assault on a woman in the area of Knockmeenagh Lane/St Brigid’s Cottages in mid May 2016, and that Gardai investigating have been checking CCTV footage from the area.

In October 2015, the Council's CCTV Contactor assessed Knockmeenagh Lane (part of, in public ownership) but it was deemed unsuitable for the siting of a camera.

It should be noted that the Litter Warden Service patrols this location at least twice a week.
