11.0 Notices of Motion 1. Cllr. D. Harvey
I CLLR Declan Harvey would like to call on the housing section of Offaly County Council to write to the Minister of Housing Darragh O’ Brien calling for an increase to the threshold of the allowance for qualification for council housing to be increased from €26,000 to €30,000 and possibly €35,000. Some people do not qualify to go on the housing list because they are over the threshold by a small margin. The middle class are worst affected by this; therefore, an increase would allow these people to have a chance to get on the housing list. In saying this I would like to see the council building more affordable housing with funding from central government.
2. Cllr. C. Claffey
"That Offaly County Council roll out the provision of free feminine hygiene products in the library and all Council owned public buildings on a trial basis to assess uptake and to prepare and budget for this in 2022"
3. Cllr. E. Fitzpatrick
"Cllr Eddie Fitzpatrick is calling Offaly county council to contact Bord na Mona regarding the proposed wetting of certain areas of Bog lands across the County seeking full clarification on the proposals and the impact this will have on adjoining Farm lands and public roads"
4. Cllr. K. Smollen
"That Offaly County Council calls on the Government to introduce legislation for a period of paid leave to be granted to people in employment who experience miscarriage or still birth, similar to maternity and paternity leave."
