SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN MEETING

Wednesday, January 27, 2021

MOTION NO. 12

MOTION: Councillor F. Timmons

That this council is a LGBTQ safe and Friendly County and that this is written into the County Development Plan.

REPORT:

Social Inclusion is one of the Overarching Considerations of the existing County Development Plan and the CE Recommendations have included for social inclusion in the draft plan. While this objective is overly specific for this stage of the process the Development Plan will seek to ensure and promote social inclusion having regard to the Council’s Corporate Plan and in line with national and regional policy for all within South Dublin County.

Recommendation:

It is recommended that this motion is adopted with amendment. As this type of policy provision or objective is overly detailed for this strategic stage, it can be considered as part of the draft plan preparation on foot of the CE Strategic Recommendation (See Part 3) page 25 as follows; ‘Support and promote social inclusion having regard to the Council’s Corporate Plan and in line with national and regional policy for all within South Dublin County’.
