In the consultations conducted throughout the country in the development of the National Childrenʼs Strategy (2000), the need for improved play and recreation facilities was the single biggest concern cited by p.1-2 children and young people. The report based on the research, was launched by the Minister for Children, Brendan Smith TD, at Larkin Community College on September 10 2007. Teenspace recognises that young people donʼt always want to participate in structured activities and that hanging out is a valid and important aspect of teenage life. ʻTeenspace promotes new initiatives and the need for interagency co-operation but also outlines a strategic approach to existing investmentʼ said the Minister. ʻTo invest wisely in the future, we need to involve young people in helping us to plan and design the facilities, which are most relevant to themʼ he added. Liz Canavan, Principal Officer in the Office of the Minister for Children, said: p.2 ʻitʼs fantastic to see the kinds of recreational innovations which are already happening and seem to be hitting the mark with young people. We need to mainstream these projects and foster more interagency collaboration by the way we invest in the futureʼ.

It is intended as a short briefing on the functioning of the Dáil and a simple explanation of specific areas that may be of interest to people operating in the community/NGO sector in attempting to make the best use of the Dáil. This briefing document is produced as a result of the EAPN Focus on Poverty in Ireland project, which started in December 2006. This project aimed to raise awareness of poverty and put poverty reduction at the top of the political agenda, while also promoting understanding and involvement in the social inclusion process among people experiencing poverty. This Guide is intended as an accompanying document to the EAPN Guide to Understanding and Engaging with the European Union. The overall aim in producing these two guides is to inform people working in the community and voluntary sector of how to engage with the Irish Parliament and the European Union in influencing policy and voicing their concerns about poverty and social inclusion issues.
