This position has given me a unique opportunity to meet thousands of Dubliners, invite varied groups into the Mansion House and welcome international visitors to Dublin. I have met unsung heroes of our communities who help people every day in sport, social justice, music and the arts and have had the pleasure to be in a position to honour them and thank them for their service to Dublin. One of my priorities as Lord Mayor was to enhance connections between Dublin and other major cities in Europe and I met with my counterparts in London, Athens, Barcelona and Berlin to explore ways we can strengthen relations between Dublin and those cities. A lot of the problems can be found in cities, but I find the solutions are found there too so by working together we can address common issues affecting our citizens. One of the highlights of 2019 had to be the Dubs historic 5 in a row which happened on the same weekend as our Dublin Ladies 3 in a row. The joint celebrations brought all Dubliners together to celebrate these achievements. After this unique achievement, it was an honour to nominate Dublin Manager Jim Gavin to be conferred with the Honorary Freedom of the City of Dublin. We have ongoing challenges in our city that we must continue to address including provision of housing and understanding the definition of public housing. We need to challenge policy makers to be climate brave and make tough decisions which may not be popular but are necessary for the planet we live on. We have to provide mobility in the city for all modes of transport and pedestrians and we need to challenge some of the issues affecting our communities including the use of scrambler bikes and drug dealing in our neighbourhoods. We will continue to work together on these and other issues to make Dublin a better city for all. There are also very positive stories about Dublin and I was delighted to work with our City Libraries to roll out library cards for all children in Dublin to encourage life-long learning, with the Dublin City Sport and Wellbeing Partnership on Sportsfest and see so many trying out new sports, our Events Team on the various free family events which take place around the City and the Parks Department in promoting the wonderful parks and open spaces on our doorstep. The Mansion House had the honour of welcoming the joint Houses of the Oireachtas for a special meeting in the Round Room at the Mansion House on 21st January 2019 to commemorate the first meeting of the Dáil Éireann which took place there 100 years ago. We will continue to commemorate the birth of our nation throughout this Decade of Commemorations by supporting national and local community events. Running a city needs a strong City Council, and I thank my fellow elected councillors, the Chief Executive Owen Keegan and all the staff of Dublin City Council for their support, hard work and continued commitment to the city, its citizens and our future. Paul Mc Auliffe Lord Mayor of Dublin Dublin City Council Annual Report and Accounts 2019 Page 5 Dublin City Council Annual Report and Accounts 2019 Page 6 Chief Executive’s Welcome Dublin saw another year of buoyant economic growth in 2019 with further growth in employment and a reduction in unemployment. However, while housing supply continued to recover new dwelling completions were still well below the level required to meet underlying demand with the result that accessing suitable affordable accommodation is still a major challenge for family and single person households in the city. The number of homeless families and individuals in emergency accommodation increased although there was a very welcome reduction in rough sleeping. Dealing with homelessness is a major challenge for the City Council. Our Housing staff, working with partner organisations, continue to provide emergency accommodation for record numbers of families and individuals presenting as homeless. I commend their hard work and dedication. 2019 saw further welcome progress in the delivery of social housing in the city and in the development of key City Council sites including, in particular, O’Devaney Gardens. In addition to new construction, social housing was made available through the Housing Assistance Payment scheme, through leasing and the acquisitions of existing dwellings. We need to redouble our efforts in 2020 and beyond, especially in the delivery of new social housing, if we are to turn the tide in terms of homeless households. The City Council adopted a comprehensive Climate Change Action Plan in 2019, which will guide our actions in both mitigating the impacts of climate change and in seeking to reduce the causal factors. We are also looking critically at how the Council can deliver its services while minimising any negative impacts on the environment. Local Elections were held in May 2019. The City Council welcomed 25 new Councillors and 38 returning Councillors. This was the first election where the online voter registration system Voter.ie, developed by the four Dublin local authorities, was used. It performed very satisfactorily. Following the election of the City Council, we were required to prepare a new Corporate Plan, which was adopted by the Council in January 2020. This will guide the Council’s actions over the coming years. 2019 also saw the Dublin Senior Football Team winning the historic five All Ireland titles in a row. The Dublin Ladies Football Team were also successful for the third time. Dublin City was proud to host a Civic Reception to celebrate these successes. The City Council also unanimously agreed to confer the Freedom of the City on Jim Gavin, the outgoing Dublin Manager in recognition of his achievements. Finally, I would like to acknowledge the contribution and hard work of all City Councillors and staff in the delivery of Council projects and services during the year.

  • The Role of Irish-Language Film in Irish National Cinema Heather
    Finding a Voice: The Role of Irish-Language Film in Irish National Cinema Heather Macdougall A Thesis in the PhD Humanities Program Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada August 2012 © Heather Macdougall, 2012 ABSTRACT Finding a Voice: The Role of Irish-Language Film in Irish National Cinema Heather Macdougall, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2012 This dissertation investigates the history of film production in the minority language of Irish Gaelic. The objective is to determine what this history reveals about the changing roles of both the national language and national cinema in Ireland. The study of Irish- language film provides an illustrative and significant example of the participation of a minority perspective within a small national cinema. It is also illustrates the potential role of cinema in language maintenance and revitalization. Research is focused on policies and practices of filmmaking, with additional consideration given to film distribution, exhibition, and reception. Furthermore, films are analysed based on the strategies used by filmmakers to integrate the traditional Irish language with the modern medium of film, as well as their motivations for doing so. Research methods included archival work, textual analysis, personal interviews, and review of scholarly, popular, and trade publications. Case studies are offered on three movements in Irish-language film. First, the Irish- language organization Gael Linn produced documentaries in the 1950s and 1960s that promoted a strongly nationalist version of Irish history while also exacerbating the view of Irish as a “private discourse” of nationalism. Second, independent filmmaker Bob Quinn operated in the Irish-speaking area of Connemara in the 1970s; his fiction films from that era situated the regional affiliations of the language within the national context.

    Catherine Murphy, T.D. Dáil Éireann Kildare Street Dublin 2 - D02 A272 9th July 2020 Dear Deputy I am writing to you concerning the matter you raised in Parliamentary Question No. 935 on 3 June last to the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, which has been referred to the National Transport Authority (NTA) for reply. Royal Canal Greenway The Royal Canal Greenway is a key element of the Dublin - Galway National Cycle Route, running through Dublin City, Fingal County and Kildare County Council areas. Within the Greater Dublin Area, the scheme is being developed by those local authorities in collaboration with, and funded by, the NTA. The alignment of the scheme parallels the Canal, swapping between the northern and southern sides so as to minimise impacts to the receiving environment. Construction of Phase 2 (between Sherriff Street Upper and North Strand Road - a distance of 0.72 km) began last year and is due for completion shortly. This section includes a new bridge, ramps, underpass and linear park. Phase 3 (between North Strand Road and Phibsborough Road) is currently at detailed design and will progress to construction in 2021. Phase 4 (between Ashtown and Cross Gunns Bridge) is also at detailed design and sections will progress to construction later this year. Consideration is being given to options for the development of the section between Castleknock and the border of Fingal / Kildare and the outcome of that work is expected to progress to planning later this year. Page 1 of 3 The remaining section, which extends from the Fingal / Kildare boundary to Maynooth has Part 8 planning approval.

  • To the Lord Mayor and Report No. 12/2019 Members of Dublin City Council Report of Assistant Chief Executive
    To the Lord Mayor and Report No. 12/2019 Members of Dublin City Council Report of Assistant Chief Executive _________________________________________________________________________ Revised Area Committee Structures – Post Local Elections 2019 _________________________________________________________________________ The new boundary provisions for the next City Council elections will be implemented from June 2019. The number of Local Electoral Areas (LEAs) in Dublin City will increase from 9 at present to 11 (Six on the north side and five on the south side). There will be no change in the number of elected members which will remain at 63. The local electoral areas will be smaller with a maximum of 7 elected members in each. The biggest changes in boundaries refer to the amalgamation of Rathmines with Crumlin/Kimmage and the creation of a new area covering Whitehall/Artane, however no existing area is left fully unchanged. These changes have implications for our existing area committee boundaries that have been in place for the last 10 years. They will also have implications for our existing area management structures, but this does give us a welcome opportunity to review, re-define and enhance those management structures. This report concentrates on the area committee boundaries and once these are agreed then we can focus on the staffing arrangements to support those structures and implement same before the elections are held in May 2019. The adoption of an area committee structure is a reserved function. I am setting out below details of the current structure and arrangements and I am also setting out a number of different options that could be put in place after the Local Elections in May 2019.

Centering on the reminiscences of Rose McNulty, a woman who has spent over fifty years in state institutions, The Secret Scripture is a deeply moving story of love lost and redeemed, against the backdrop of an emerging Irish state in which female sexuality and independence unsettles the colluding patriarchies of church and nationalist politics. Demonstrating Sheridan’s trademark skill with actors, his profound sense of story, and depth of feeling for Irish social history, The Secret Scripture marks a return to personal themes for the writer-director as well as a reunion with producer Noel Pearson, almost a quarter of a century after their breakout success with My Left Foot.
