Motion submitted by Cllr Mary Freehill:-

Dublin now has many volunteer groups who contribute so much to the city.  Through the City Council operation we have the Canals Volunteer Group that does so much to maintain the canals and the Community Gardens Group, through their work, enhance many parts of the city.  Apart from the value of the work itself it adds so much to the social capital of the city.  It is agreed that a working group be established to report back on the most appropriate ways of recognising people who do this valuable work for the City”
