  • 1869.] Local Government Acts Extension. 97 Rick Were Last Year
    1869.] Local Government Acts Extension. 97 rick were last year successfully brought under its operations, and as its provisions are better understood, I am confident they will be more generally applied. I do not see any very important distinction between the deepening of a lengthened river course and the construc- tion of a tramway or a railway extension, as far as parliamentary powers are concerned. I have been one of those who confidently asserted many years ago, as I do now, that railways should, in the advance of civilization and scientific improvement, be regarded as nothing more than common highways, differing from them only in cost and carefulness of construction, and the exclusive purposes to which their peculiar characteristics require them to be applied. For these peculiar features the legislature can easily provide, and 1 hope in our time to see their civilizing influences more easily attain- able by the removal of those barriers which now render their adop- tion so costly and so difficult, and that this desirable result will be attained by the total abolition of the present tedious and expensive ordeal of Private Bill Legislation. The limits which the rules of this Society, and regard for the feel- ings of my auditory, impose upon me, have prevented me from going at greater length into this branch of the subject, but I hope I have not trespassed too much on your patience, in attracting your atten- tion to a subject which I feel to be one of the greatest possible im- portance to this part of the United Kingdom.

  • 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.

Introduction None of the early Corporation records survive among the present documents, all of which date from after 1855 when the Town Commissioners were established.Some of these earlier records may be included amongst the Lismore and Chatsworth papers. When the Old Narket House in Lower Main Street was sold by the Duke of Devonshire in 1861 other records may have been destroyed as the first floor of this building housed the Corporation rooms. A note in the Minutes dated April 1885 records that Edmond Keohan and and other Commissioners were to 'examine and class the papers in the office, to take proper steps for their preservationf.It is not clear whether these papers included any pre 1855 documents. There are several references throughout the minutes to the Letter Books, unfortunately these have not survived which is a great pity as they included letters from notable personalities and political figures. It is thought that other records were destroyed in the 1950s during an over enthusiastic clean out of the Town Hall in Friary Street. However some documents may have escaped destruction over the years and are now in private hands.

The key objectives of this initiative are to: • Document and capture learning around implementation and delivery of citizen engagement initiatives; • Acknowledge progress made and share best practice in citizen engagement initiatives; and • Create valuable educational resources that add to the existing body of knowledge on the Irish Public Service These Case Studies are not intended to be evaluations of the overall success and impact of the case examined, rather, the aim is to capture reflections on citizen engagement initiatives. Furthermore, by telling the story behind these Case Studies it is hoped to communicate achievements and lessons learned and to acknowledge the significant progress that has been made under Action 4 of Our Public Service 2020- to significantly improve communications and engagement with the public. The case studies initiative builds on the pilot case studies project that was undertaken by the RDO in 2017. The pilot project was established to produce teaching resources for lecturers and students of public policy and public administration, as well as for those broadly interested in public policy and its implementation. The project is intended to encourage learning among students and practitioners of public policy and also to inform the design and implementation process of future policy.
