Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 April 2019
143. Deputy Joan Burton asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if the strategic review by the OPW for the Phoenix Park will be put on public display in libraries and community centres in Dublin in order that persons can engage with the review; and if he will extend the consultation deadline to allow persons sufficient time to make an observation as part of the public consultation process. [14814/19]
View answerThe OPW consider that the Phoenix Park Visitor Centre is the best, most centrally located venue for a public exhibition of information in respect of the 'Draft Phoenix Park Visitor Experience Strategic Review.' For those who are not in a position to review the exhibition in person, the executive summary of the report and a pdf of the exhibition materials are available for download from the Phoenix Park website, www.phoenixpark.ie. Libraries, community groups, residents associations, schools, sporting bodies, charities and all other interested parties can download this material for free and share with their members.
As per the Deputy's request, I can confirm that the exhibition at the Visitor Centre will be extended by two weeks to run until April 19th 2019 and the observation period will also be extended until April 26th 2019.
