QUESTION NO.2

QUESTION: Councillor William Joseph Carey

To ask the Chief Executive if SDCC could look at the feasibility of providing a open air ice rink in the central clondalkin area for the Christmas festive period going forward?

REPLY:

South Dublin County Council facilitated the operation of a temporary indoor ice rink and associated facilities in the grounds at Tallaght Stadium for a number of years from 2017. The facility itself was operated by an experienced  ice rink/ event operator. However due difficulties in acquiring insurance for such a facility, the provision of a temporary indoor ice rink hasn’t proceeded in recent years. The Council has no further plans in this regard.
