This follows an extensive public consultation process undertaken to inform the preparation of the Plan. This included public consultation at the pre-draft, draft and material alteration/amendment stages in the plan preparation process. As part of the pre-draft consultation process, Galway County Council held a public workshop and invited written submissions from the general public. The attendance of the public workshop, which was held to obtain the views of the local community at an early stage in the planning process, was very encouraging and highlights the high level of interest that people have in the future of the village. This culminated in the publication of the Bearna Local Area Plan Pre-Draft Public Consultation Report in May 2006 summarising the main outcomes of the pre-draft consultation process.

During part of the year 1916 that I was away from school, a young teacher from Spiddal, Seoirse Ó Flaharta, just out of training, acted as substitute in Furbough school. When I returned, I took up duty there again, but the Board of Education refused to recognise me, and requested the Manager, Fr. Lally, to have a teacher appointed in my place. This, he refused to do, though he was not particularly nationally minded, but the clergy of Galway, on the whole, were very strong on the point. Then the National Board withdrew recognition entirely from the school, and refused to pay the salary of the assistant, as well as my own. The Irish National Teachers' Organisation took the matter up, and paid us both grade salary for the period of non-recognition, which extended to April, 1920. In the month of February, 1917, at four o'clock in the morning, we were all awakened by a loud knocking on the door, together with an order to get up at once. My mother opened the door, and in trooped a number of R.I.C.

Or you might take time to reflect on times past with a visit to the ruins of a sixth century monastic settlement on the stunning Skellig Michael in Kerry. You may roam through the romantic beauty of scenic Ards Forest Park in Donegal. Or you might watch the weather change from the historic Clare Island Lighthouse in Mayo.
