Ms Rosemary Collier:

There is a local community campaign around the Iveagh Gardens. It is a really important garden in Dublin that the OPW looks after. The OPW has a team that works there, cares for it and presents it to the public every day. There are people campaigning in relation to the gardens but the scheme we got planning permission for is based on the historical layout or historical relationship between Iveagh Gardens and Earlsfort Terrace. The OPW had a scheme for the children’s science centre based on the historical relationship between the gardens and Earlsfort Terrace. People in the community have different views and have campaigned on the basis of those.
