MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO.10

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

This committee requests the Chief Executive to formally write to An Garda Síochána to ask why a defibrillator has not been placed in Lucan Garda Station, considering it operates 24 hours a day. Given the importance of defibrillators as life-saving equipment, we would like to know if it is possible for this essential service to be provided at the Lucan station. We believe that having a defibrillator at this location would greatly benefit both Garda personnel and the local community in the event of an emergency. We ask the Chief Executive to seek clarification from An Garda Síochána on whether this can be achieved.

REPORT:

If this motion is passed, a letter in this regard will be issued to An Garda Síochána on behalf of the local area committee. The response, when received, will be circulated to the Members.
