MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, December 18, 2017

QUESTION NO. 5

QUESTION: Councillor Emma Hendrick

"To ask the Chief Executive what is the process when selecting a board of management to run a Community Centre as a limited company rather than as a Council run organisation and to make a statement on the matter?"

REPLY:

"The Community Development Team would assist, encourage and recruit a mixture of both suitable local community representatives and representatives from all the relevant key stakeholder and statutory support agencies relevant to the area where the community facility is located to take up places on the management committee. The committee would then be set up as a company limited by guarantee within all the approriate legal frameworks. We are working with stakeholders in this regard and progress as quickly as possible."
