GREEN PARTY WELCOMES COASTAL ZONE PLAN

Councillor Ciarán Cuffe of the Green Party has praised Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council on its decision to prepare a Coastal Zone Plan.

"This is an opportunity to clean up a lot of derelict sites and blackspots along the coast", he stated, "It should also be an opportunity to address the housing crisis by providing some well designed small housing schemes in appropriate areas."
