SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, November 23, 2021

MOTION NO. 23

MOTION: Councillor Derren Ó Brádaigh

That this Council agrees to write to the HSE and the Minister for Health outlining the growing concerns of the vastly expanding population of Lucan West, namely the newer development areas of Adamstown, St Helen's, Shackleton, Hallwell, Gandon, Somerton and the Paddocks, all within an SDZ, yet still totally void of a single local GP service, dental practitioner or pharmacy. The recognition for delivery of primary healthcare facilities must now be addressed as a matter of urgency and fast-tracked to meet the health demands in line with this rapid growth.

REPORT:

If the Motion is agreed by the Members,  a letter will be written in this regard.
