MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, April 28, 2025

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor N. Whelan

"Is the manager aware of funding previously allocated to Tallaght Sports Complex to install a pool pod for accessibility needs within the local community and can an update be provided?"

REPLY:

Active South Dublin was allocated €25,450 in 2024 for capital spend on disability focussed equipment.  It was intended to use this funding to install a poolpod in Tallaght Sports Complex however on examination it was discovered that due to the configuration of the pool a higher spec unit costing approx. €50,000 would be required.  Tallaght Sports Complex was unable to meet the shortfall in funding and as a result the project did not go ahead.
