MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

QUESTION NO. 6

QUESTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

To ask the Chief Executive for an update in the investigation into the wall repair opposite the Maxol and the assessment of other areas; and if a statement can be made on the matter.

REPLY:

SDCC are in ongoing communication with the Italian Embassy regarding the collapsed section of wall.

There is a dispute over who is responsible for the repair and SDCC are firmly of the belief that the Italian Embassy are responsible for this.

There has been a high turnover of embassy staff as a result of the new ambassador and the new staff have had to take time to familiarise themselves with all the issues. SDCC are satisfied that progress is being made towards a resolution.

It is not currently possible to give a timeline for these repairs but it is unlikely that the wall will be repaired before September.
