I would ask you to remember our residents, our day attenders, our colleagues, our staff and our friends .......May they rest in peace. Firstly, thank you all for coming here today and especially I want to thank those of you who have given so many years of dedicated service as Council members, as Friends and as staff. I particularly want to welcome our new Council Members Ms. Eileen Barry and Mr. John Green .... You are both very welcome indeed. My Report covers the years 1992 and 1993, and within my Report, I hope to acquaint you of the many developments concerning propelty, staffing, social occasions, the generosity of organisations and people and our Plans for the Future. Beginning with Property we have had our successes and frustrations. In my last Report I advised that funds had been earmarked for the extension to the Sports Centre and for upgrading Leitrim Lodge. As many of you are aware the Sports Centre development has taken place whereas it is only now that we have reached the stage of appointing a Builder for Leitrim Lodge. However, let us be positive and refer to the magnificent Official Opening of our Sports Centre by An Taoiseach, Mr. Albert Reynolds, T.O. A neighbour of his who is present here today, succeeded in getting An Taoiseach to agree to attend. Many of you who were present, were I am sure, as impressed as I was with the organisation on the day, from An Taoiseach's reception to the time he left.
