Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Local Government and Heritage
Vacancy and Dereliction: Discussion
2:00 am
Chris Andrews (Sinn Fein)
My understanding is that the south inner city mostly is not included. I will look at Pearse Street itself, where Trinity College has done untold damage, as Mr. Flynn and Mr. Mitchell know well. Trinity College has turned its back on Pearse Street and on the community. Quite a significant length of Pearse Street is sterile. It needs to be activated. I think that should be part of the remit but it is not covered in the core area. I do not think it is; I could be wrong.
