Executive Summary This report updates key sections of the study of `Employment Opportunities Arising from the Grangegorman Development in Dublin’s North Inner City Joining up the Dots’ (2009)1. It provides an update of the socio-economic, demographic and employment data that underpins the proposed development of the Grangegorman area. Together with a number of other reports, including the `Grangegorman Campus Development Policy Framework’ (2013)2 and the HSE report on the `Grangegorman Neighbourhood and Primary Care Area – Health Needs Assessment’ (2010)3, they provide us with a clear understanding of the demographics, educational and employment profile of the area. These reports will inform the Grangegorman Labour and Learning Forum (GLLF) in pursuing their objectives for developing educational and employment opportunities for the surrounding and wider communities. 1.2 About the Area The former St. Brendan’s Hospital grounds, located in Grangegorman in Dublin’s

  • Migration Patterns in Dublin County Borough
    Migration Patterns in Dublin County Borough N. JOHNSON N the last 15 years Dublin has undergone a dramatic change, from the fairly sleepy introverted capital of the 26 counties, it has been transformed into a relatively I sophisticated and increasingly cosmopolitan financial and commercial centre. The large demand for office space has led to a change in function of an ever-growing number of buildings in the central city area, while the steadily increasing population is being housed and rehoused in new suburban estates around and beyond the city perimeter. Change has been rapid and this study, limited to that area included in the County Borough due to lack of adequate data, concentrates on certain facets of the city in explanation of the continuous movements of its population. It will show how, as in the majority of cities in the Western Hemisphere, the ecological process of invasion and succession determined the present composition of Dublin and it will outline along what path, without official intervention, its future pattern of growth may proceed. The Growth of Modern Dublin Urban ecologists1 describe the usual process of a city's growth in terms of a centrifugal process. The continuous pressure of migrant population on central city accommodation causes the residents to move to the periphery of the city in order to escape the encroach­ ing slums. This process of invasion and succession continues with the areas of over- *I wish to thank Professor B. Hutchinson, Dr R. C. Geary and Dr Brendan M. Walsh for their valuable criticisms and Peter Neary for conducting the statistical analysis in this paper.

  • Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q4 2019
    Social Housing Construction Projects Status Report Q4 2019 May 2020 Rebuilding Ireland - Action Plan for Housing and Homelessness Quarter 4 of 2019: Social Housing Construction Status Report Rebuilding Ireland: Social Housing Targets Under Rebuilding Ireland, the Government has committed more than €6 billion to support the accelerated delivery of over 138,000 additional social housing homes to be delivered by end 2021. This will include 83,760 HAP homes, 3,800 RAS homes and over 50,000 new homes, broken down as follows: Build: 33,617; Acquisition: 6,830; Leasing: 10,036. It should be noted that, in the context of the review of Rebuilding Ireland and the refocussing of the social housing delivery programme to direct build, the number of newly constructed and built homes to be delivered by 2021 has increased significantly with overall delivery increasing from 47,000 new homes to over 50,000. This has also resulted in the rebalancing of delivery under the construction programme from 26,000 to 33,617 with acquisition targets moving from 11,000 to 6,830. It is positive to see in the latest Construction Status Report that 6,704 social homes are currently onsite. The delivery of these homes along with the additional 7,813 homes in the pipeline will substantially aid the continued reduction in the number of households on social housing waiting lists. These numbers continue to decline with a 5% reduction of households on the waiting lists between 2018 and 2019 and a 25% reduction since 2016. This progress has been possible due to the strong delivery under Rebuilding Ireland with over 100,000 (100,124) households supported to the end of Q4 2019 since Rebuilding Ireland in 2016.

  • KEEPING in TOUCH Joe Costello TD
    KEEPING IN TOUCH Joe Costello TD Autumn 2014 EXCITING NEW ERA FOR GRANGEGORMAN AS 1,000 STUDENTS ARRIVE IN SEPTEMBER September 2014 marks the arrival of the first cohort of students on the Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT) campus which is being constructed on the 73 acre site at Grangegorman, Dublin 7. As the local public representative and member of the Grangegorman Consultative Group, I worked with my colleagues, Minsters Brendan Howlin and Ruairi Quinn to ensure the inclusion of this €230 million project in the Government Stimulus package. With St Brendan’s Hospital relocated to the Phoenix Care Centre, the DIT campus development is well under way. Site infrastructure and public realm works are in progress. The six protected structures on the site are now being converted for educational use and will accommodate the first DIT students from the DIT School of Media and Fine Art who will arrive in September 2014. The DIT project is labour intensive and to ensure that the local community benefits from it, we have secured agreement for a 20% local employment clause. Over 2,000 construction jobs will be created over the next three years. The local labour charter will ensure that local people access employment from the project. Should you wish to register for local employment at Grangegorman send your curriculum vitae to the Local Employment Service, 42 Manor Street, Dublin 7 or email gmoore@nwicles.ie Joe Costello TD at the Clock Tower, Grangegorman Often promised in the old days by Fianna Fail, particularly around election time, the world-class educational facility at Grangegorman is now finally being delivered by Labour in Government for the people of Dublin.

  • The Cost of Insanity in Nineteenth-Century Ireland Public, Voluntary and Private Asylum Care
    Mental Health in Historical Perspective The Cost of Insanity in Nineteenth-Century Ireland Public, Voluntary and Private Asylum Care Alice Mauger Mental Health in Historical Perspective Series Editors Catharine Coleborne School of Humanities and Social Science University of Newcastle Callaghan, NSW, Australia Matthew Smith History of Psychiatry University of Strathclyde Glasgow, UK Covering all historical periods and geographical contexts, the series explores how mental illness has been understood, experienced, diag- nosed, treated and contested. It will publish works that engage actively with contemporary debates related to mental health and, as such, will be of interest not only to historians, but also mental health professionals, patients and policy makers. With its focus on mental health, rather than just psychiatry, the series will endeavour to provide more patient-centred histories. Although this has long been an aim of health historians, it has not been realised, and this series aims to change that. The scope of the series is kept as broad as possible to attract good quality proposals about all aspects of the history of mental health from all periods. The series emphasises interdisciplinary approaches to the feld of study, and encourages short titles, longer works, collections, and titles which stretch the boundaries of academic publishing in new ways.
