QUESTION NO. 6

QUESTION: Councillor S. O'Hara

To ask the Chief Executive for a report on how the Rathcoole Courthouse is being used for community engagement and its availability at key events such as St Patrick's Day.

REPLY:

Rathcoole Courthouse is currently being managed by a volunteer board of directors until a structure is in place which includes full time staff. The board of directors are making the facility available to community groups and are actively inviting expression of interest to any organisations who wish to secure a block booking to deliver artistic and cultural services.

Since opening the centre has been used as a venue for Open House, Culture night and Tradfest and the board will continue to make the space available for use as part of these type of events.
