MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, March 09, 2020

QUESTION NO. 16

QUESTION: Councillor Eoin Ó Broin

To ask the Chief Executive if any public buildings are available in South Dublin County Council for civil ceremonies (marriages)?

REPLY:

There are many venues available in the County for civil ceremonies. If the question is specific to Council owned buildings, there are a small number of venues that may be suitable for this purpose such as the Round Tower in Clondalkin and Tallaght Stadium, but they actually need to be asked by a couple wishing to get married there before the HSE will inspect the venue as part of any licence application. To date one civil ceremony has taken place in Tallaght Stadium and none for the Round Tower.
