Appendix 7: Landscape Character Areas Landscape Assessment Study and Landscape Character Areas Landscape Character Assessment (LCA) attempts to describe landscapes in terms of their character in an objective way. This can be used to inform decision making in relation to the protection of the environment, natural resources and heritage, to monitor change and to guide development. The Landscape Character Assessment for Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown divides the County into 14 Landscape Character Areas. A description of each Landscape Character Area and principles for development for each are detailed. The original LCA was finalised in May 2002 and has subsequently been updated in the 2010 – 2016 Plan and also for this current County Development Plan. The Department of Arts Heritage and the Gaelteacht’s National Landscape Strategy for Ireland, 2014 – 2024, when finalised is likely to include new guidance on carrying out LCA. It is envisaged that the existing assessment will be reviewed in due course to ensure consistency with any new forthcoming Government guidance.

    Dear Heads of Contingent, Colm Kavanagh Director World Scout

    Dear Heads of Contingent, Ireland is one of the best small countries of the world; its contribution to humanity, innovation, culture, peace and technology is huge. Around the world it is estimated that over 70 million people claim connections to Ireland through their family history. So, it is from this firm base that we reach out from Ireland and invite you to take part in the World Scout Moot 2021. Our theme for the 16th World Scout Moot is ‘Le Chéile’; an Irish word meaning ‘together’, with wider connotations to friendship, family and collective action. The World Scout Moot seeks to bring together, and connect in friendship, the Rover Scouts of the world during the Moot in July 2021. We are planning an event for 6000 people – 5000 participants and 1000 IST, and we hope to build on the success of previous World Scout Moots. A World Scout Moot does not just happen because you announce a venue and an event date; it requires careful planning to ensure a great and successful event. The Moot planning team is actively at work building the detail of everything from programme to volunteer support. Transport, food and logistics need to be worked out in detail so that buses and trains arrive on time and the food for your evening meal is ready on site for you to prepare. Programme trails are being created and tested, basecamp programme is also in development, as are special experiences and ceremonies. So, loads of work to be done! If you are interested in getting involved in the planning stages of the Moot we would love to hear from you – see our website.
