Pensions: The old age pension has increased by 12 euro per week offering greater financial support to retirees.
Thanks to our road gritters! Huge thanks to South Dublin County Council's gritting team, for their ongoing efforts during this cold snap - your dedication is essential in keeping our roads safe.

Canonbrook: I raised residents' concerns about the walkthrough at St. Finian's. The council contacted their contractor to remove graffiti, additionally I've requested railing repairs and tidying of overgrowth at this location.
Dodsboro Roundabout: I reported the damage to the roundabout and will update you when I get further information
Accessible Parking: I raised residents' concerns that there is no accessible parking at Lucan Road/Newlands Road. The issue will be discussed at this month's Traffic Management meeting.
Christmas Tree: The village Christmas tree will be removed, replanted, and cared for to so that it may be reused next year. Thanks once again to South Dublin County Council and Bretland for providing the tree and Lucan Festival for organising the switching on of the lights.
Wishing you peace, health, and all you wish in 2025.
