Amharc ar fhreagraA steering group has been established to examine the potential of the lower Liffey valley to be managed in an integrated way in respect of its amenity, recreational and heritage resources. The steering group comprised representatives of the Office of Public Works, Fingal County Council, Dublin City Council, South Dublin County Council and Kildare County Council and has the assistance of additional professional expertise. A study is at an advanced stage which includes a wide public consultation process, inventory of resources and examination of strategic issues. It is expected that an initial draft of the study will be made available for further public comment in mid-January.
