REPORT:

A social infrastructure audit is currently being carried out for the entire County. This is an evidence based assessment that examines and analyses the availability and capacity of existing social and community facilities, including sports and recreational facilities to determine future requirements and make recommendations based on anticipated growth in population and accordingly, identify where future investment is required. Parallel to this a ‘Parks and Open Space Strategy’ for the County is currently being prepared which includes an overall plan to guide the provision and development of public open space and assess the future demand within the County. This motion is already provided for in the CE Recommendation:

‘Prepare a social infrastructure audit which will inform policy on infrastructure provision within the County’.

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the motion is adopted with amendment to recognise that the intent of the motion is already provided for in the CE Recommendation (Part 3, page 31):

‘Prepare a social infrastructure audit which will inform policy on infrastructure provision within the County’.
