That temporary lighting will be installed along the Grand Canal path from Suir Road to Blackhorse as an interim measure, until such time as the extant feasibility study and any development works arising for this stretch of the Canal way are carried out.

M141   Councillor Tina MacVeigh

That this area committee agrees that consideration should be given to the provision of a temporary playing field in the south west inner city and that the area office will revert to councillors with specific proposals by the February SCAC meeting.

M142   Councillor Daithí Doolan

That the South Central Area Committee calls on the HSE to engage with Dublin City Council and negotiate how the former Blindcraft building can be used to house community services.

M143   Councillor Sophie Nicoullaud

That this committee writes to the Park Superintendent of the Phoenix Park in the OPW to request as a matter of priority all trees with protective metal fences be inspected in order to remove the ones that are damaging the trunk and or the roots of the trees.

Looking at the efforts under the then Taoiseach Enda Kenny in setting up the North Inner-City Initiative is a model we should look at. I feel the current model of policing cannot deliver the safe communities 98% of the population aspire to. Can this committee also write to the Minister for Justice Equality and Law Reform Ms Helen McEntee TD, Garda Commissioner Drew Harrison & An Taoiseach Mr Michael Martin TD looking to start that conversation with statutory and NGO on the ground with a view to addressing the issues.

M147   Councillor Vincent Jackson
