Public Accounts Committee

2013 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Dublin Docklands Development Authority: Annual Report and Financial Statements

10:00 am

Mr. Paul Clegg:

I can only say we are entering into a new era. Dublin City Council has an office in the docklands, in the old local authority office. We have an SDZ. There is a commitment from the city council to do all in our power to have real social regeneration. We are accountable as an organisation at city council and here. If we do not perform, we are accountable. There is a dedicated team of people working in the docklands who have real enthusiasm to ensure we get real jobs. We have a good platform here to get real jobs into the future but we will see. It will not be from a lack of effort on the part of the city council that we do not have positive results on this.
