Ceisteanna (1241)

Tony McLoughlin

Ceist:

1241. Deputy Tony McLoughlin asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection if she will request the management of the social protection office in Summerhill, County Sligo, to enforce new measures whereby members of its workforce are not allowed to park in the Summerhill village and circular road area in view of the fact that this ongoing problem is causing the residents of the estate many problems with accessing their homes; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

This is a public road and there are currently no parking restrictions on that part of the road in question. Notwithstanding this, however, and on foot of concerns expressed by the local residents association who recently met with local management, a notice has issued to all staff highlighting the concerns and requesting that staff only use the Department’s car parking facilities. There has been a very good response from staff to this request and local management will keep the situation under review.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
