Gary Gannon (Dublin Central, Social Democrats) | Oireachtas source

I again ask for time to be allowed to speak about the city of Dublin. The Taoiseach may be aware that an application was made yesterday to construct a fence around the Ambassador Theatre, which was built in 1764. This would obliterate part of the cultural heritage of our city. We need a consultative forum led by this Chamber in which we can bring all agencies together to discuss the city of Dublin and how we can make it safer, remove the blight of antisocial behaviour, confront dereliction, open up vacant sites and make us all proud again of our capital city and its infrastructure.
