MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, June 26, 2018

MOTION NO. 16

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

"Following on from my motion at full Council regarding the hiring of mobiloo’s at public events and festivals, that this Area Committee calls on the Chief Executive to ensure there is provision of a Mobiloo at the Lucan Festival in September and to further include its availability in any advertising of the event to promote availability for persons with a disability requiring it on the day."

REPORT:

The Lucan Festival is one of a number of local village festivals in South Dublin and is organised by an independent Voluntary Local Organising Committee. The Local Community Development Teams provides advice and assistance to the local committees which also includes the opportunity of some funding to assist with the costs of organising the festivals.

All Local Organising Committees are always advised to take all appropriate and reasonable steps to ensure that the events and activities organised within the festivals are made accessible and inclusive to all.
