Mr. Kieran Kehoe:

The biggest challenge we feel we have concerns those we call our new Waterford citizens. This is one of the reasons we have identified our cultural quarter deep in the city centre. This is where we have more than 20% of new Irish and new Waterford people, as we are calling them, live. We are developing a new community hub right in the centre of that area. We are transforming buildings for cultural and community uses in the middle of it. We are doing this in order that we can provide this type of support for and access to art right in the heart of the communities in which these new citizens live. I refer to continually engaging with people. Up to 1,000 new Waterford people attended Africa Day last week. We must make them aware of what we can do. When they become aware, then they engage. We find this approach is working quite successfully for us.
