Swimming Pool Lucan: Thanks to my colleagues in Lucan area for supporting my motion requesting that the council CEO write to Minister of Transport Tourism & Sports requesting that funding for Lucan Swimming Pool is prioritised. I intend with my colleagues on the Community Alliance to keep the provision of a swimming pool for Lucan on top of the agenda.

Security: With the Christmas period upon us there has been a noticed increase in burglaries, I would advise all to be vigilant and report any unusual activity to the Gardaí.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the newsletter team for their work throughout the year and wish all and everyone “Merry Christmas & a Peaceful and Happy New Year for 2015”.
