The recommendation of the outgoing Moore Street Advisory Group that it should be reconfigured to continue its work as a smaller, more focused body, was agreed and accepted by the Minister at the time, including the reappointment of the outgoing chair to lead the next phase. Membership nominations were also requested from constituent organisations, including relatives’ groups, street traders, Dublin City Council and from the Ceann Comhairle in the case the Oireachtas. The nomination process in the latter case was necessarily held in abeyance until government formation had been completed.
I would be keen to see the work of the Advisory Group moving forward as quickly as possible once the outstanding membership nominations are received. My Department has followed up with the representative groups whose nominations are still awaited and I would be hopeful that the first meeting of the new Advisory Group can take place relatively soon.
