To ask the Taoiseach with respect to the taskforce for Dublin, if the Liberties area of Dublin 8 is included in the 'Rejuvenating our Capital City Centre' section of the Programme for Government; if elements of this section, including the launch of an urban communities initiative to revitalise disadvantage city areas and consider the appropriate concentration of services in the city centre in particular, will include the Liberties; and the criteria and mechanism by which a community can apply to be included in the 'Rejuvenating Our Capital City Centre' section of the Programme for Government, specifically the urban communities initiative.

As agreed by Government, the Department of the Taoiseach has convened an Interdepartmental Group (IDG) to examine the recommendations made by the Dublin City Taskforce. The IDG is currently preparing a Report which will be considered by Government in due course. In terms of criteria and mechanism of specific urban communities’ initiatives, any such policy will form part of considerations by the Minister for Rural and Community Development as part of his Programme for Government commitments and in the context of the National Development Plan review.
