Is that agreed? Agreed.
The next petition is No. P00053/24 "Register the public Right of Way on Deepwater Quay, Cobh" on behalf of Save Cobh's Right of Way. It states:
Register the public Right of Way on Deepwater Quay, Cobh. That the public Right of Way over Deepwater Quay/Five Foot Way be formally registered. The right of way has been used uninterrupted and without permission for generations, up to 200 years.
Regarding action taken to resolve the issue of concern before submitting the petition, the petitioners have canvassed all local council members and TDs and collected several thousand signatures in support of the petition.
Regarding action taken by the secretariat, the secretariat wrote to Cork County Council on 24 June 2024 seeking a response advising of its views within 14 days. On 10 July 2024, the secretariat received a response from Cork County Council.
The committee recommends that the response from Cork County Council be published and the correspondence from Cork County Council be forwarded to the petitioner for comment within 14 days. Do the members have any views?
