REPORT:

The Interagency Team, Community Department will request a meeting for early July with Superintendent Paul Dolan, who is in charge of the Lucan and Ronanstown Garda Stations, along with representatives of community policing and all Councillors from the Lucan, Palmerstown, and North Clondalkin Area Committee.

With the new Local Community Safety Partnership set to be established in the coming months, such a meeting would provide valuable context and insight—both for councillors and for the development of the partnership. It would also offer an important opportunity to strengthen links with community gardaí and to discuss policing priorities for the area.
