QUESTION NO.11

QUESTION: Councillor T. Gilligan

To ask the Chief Executive to clarify, does the Council own the GAA lands in Rathcoole adjacent to Rathcoole Park as indicated in the accompanying map and on the Land Development Agency map (https://lda.ie/public-lands) or does the GAA own the land?

REPLY:

The Council at its meeting on 12th February 1996 agreed to dispose of 26 acres to the GAA and a variation to the terms of the disposal was approved by the Council at a further meeting on 8th February 2010. The GAA have not completed the registration of the lands in their ownership hence the confusion on the LDA map which reflects the current registration but does not take account of the disposal.
