QUESTION NO.12

QUESTION: Councillor F. Timmons

To ask the Chief Executive to issue an answer in regards to the WWI Memorial stone What is the compromise SDCC are prepared to accept?

REPLY:

As per recommendation to the Infrastructure Naming committee 03 June 2022, Public Realm recommend that a revised working be submitted for the proposed wording / engravings on the Memorial Stone. Individual names should not be included in this proposal as this will not be permitted by SDCC. The proposal should be reflective of a universal and inclusive remembrance of those who lost their lives in World War 1, a key objective of the Decade of Centenaries Programme (2012-2023).
