URGENT TRAFFIC SAFETY CONCERNS - BETTYGLEN ESTATE (WATERMILL ROAD RAHENY, DUBLIN 5)We, the undersigned residents of Bettyglen Estate (Watermill Road), Raheny, wish to formally raise serious and urgent concerns regarding the ongoing deterioration of traffic and parking conditions within our estate. These issues pose a clear and immediate risk of a serious accident within Bettyglen estate. The Issue Traffic volumes have increased dramatically within Bettyglen in recent months. This situation has been exacerbated by the installation of timber fencing along Watermill Road opposite St. Annes Park, which has displaced parking and led to a significant increase in vehicle movements into our estate. Consequently, hazardous conditions now arise on a weekly basis. Parking pressure is most acute on weeknights with activity at the nearby pitches, the beach and other local amenities, as well as on Saturdays, and Sundays, when congestion and associated safety concerns are at their highest. Vehicles frequently travel at inappropriate speeds within the estate, while parking at the entrance (to the estate) and on bends (within the estate) severely restricts visibility for both motorists and pedestrians who live here. In many instances, parking also occupies most of the available road space, creating serious safety and access issues around the green space in the centre of the estate for our young children. The Ask We, respectfully, request that the Traffic Department within Dublin City Council urgently - 1. Prioritise the installation of double yellow lines at the entrance to the estate, as an immediate step to mitigate risk. The current layout and level of obstructive parking significantly impair visibility and safe access, and we are increasingly concerned that, without prompt intervention, it is only a matter of time before a serious injury occurs. 2. Conduct a broader assessment of the estate to examine the following traffic calming measures - - Speed ramps at key junctures within the estate - The installation of a zebra crossing outside the estate (on Watermill Road) to facilitate safe crossing for children and adults - Examine how children can access / exit the green space safely with high volumes of parked cars around the perimeter (The Village Rd) We note that local representatives, including Councillors Cian O'Callaghan, Barry Heneghen and Supriya Singh have been in touch with the Traffic Advisory Group in DCC (April 2026) on our behalf, and we wish to formally support these representations. We would appreciate written confirmation of receipt of this correspondence, together with an outline of the proposed next steps and anticipated timeframe for assessment and implementation. Yours faithfully, The residents of Bettyglen Estate (Watermill Road, Raheny, Dublin 5)1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Melanie McCann

Make Lugnaquilla our next National ParkMinister for Nature, Heritage & Biodiversity Christopher O'Sullivan, You said a goal of yours is to significantly expand the number of national parks and nature reserves owned by the State. The sale of the land around and including Lugnaquilla, Leinster's highest peak, is the perfect opportunity. Please engage with the vendors and secure this area for NPWS and the Irish people before it goes to public auction and we potentially lose more of our precious heritage and unique habitats to foreign investment or private wealth.417 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Leah G.

Enact a Generational Smoking Ban in IrelandTHE UK PARLIAMENT has approved legislation that will ban anyone born after 2008 from ever legally buying tobacco. When the bill is written into law next week, people born on or after 1 January 2009 will be prohibited from purchasing tobacco products. The UK is not the first country to introduce such a ban, and it would be good for Ireland to follow suit. Ireland can stop the next generation from becoming addicted to tobacco and save billions in healthcare.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alex Barton

EVERYONE DESERVES THE CHANCE TO LEARN TO SWIM: Restore Private Lessons at Mullingar Swimming PoolWe, the undersigned, are parents, guardians, and adult learners who use Mullingar Swimming Pool and are deeply concerned about the recently announced policy prohibiting private swimming lessons during public sessions, due to come into effect on 1st May 2026. This decision will have a significant and negative impact on many members of our community. Private one-to-one and small ratio swimming lessons play a vital role for: • Children who struggle in group lesson settings • Children with additional needs or disabilities who require tailored instruction • Individuals who need extra support to build water confidence and safety skills • Adults who are learning to swim, many of whom rely on private lessons due to anxiety, past experiences, or the need for a more personalised pace For many of these users, private instruction is not a luxury—it is the only effective and accessible way they can safely learn to swim. We find it difficult to reconcile this decision with the stated goal of providing a “safe, fair, and well-managed environment for all pool users.” In reality, structured one-to-one or small-ratio lessons delivered by qualified instructors are among the safest and most controlled uses of the facility. It is clear that there is a lack of sufficient availability within the pool's own lesson programmes. Many classes are oversubscribed, leaving families and adult learners without access and driving demand for private lessons. In addition, limited time and availability within these programmes— particularly for children with additional needs— means that many are not adequately supported in a group setting. While alternative offerings such as the swim ability programme and sensory sessions are available, these appear to be underutilised and do not meet the broader demand or replace the flexibility and effectiveness of private instruction for many users. The parent and toddler sessions were also forced to discontinue in July, despite the programme’s success and delivery by a highly experienced instructor. This has already left many families with young children under four years old without access to appropriate lessons in the pool. Although an alternative offering for this cohort was indicated, no such replacement has materialised. It now appears that yet another group of children is being overlooked. There is no indication that these private lessons have caused any disadvantage to other pool users. In many cases, they have taken place without overcrowding or disruption. As such, a complete ban appears disproportionate. We also wish to express our strong concern and frustration at the extremely short notice given for this change. With less than 10 days’ notice before implementation on 1st May, families and adult learners have been left with little time to adjust. Many have only recently built trust with instructors and developed confidence in the water, and this abrupt change risks undoing important progress and will discourage them from using the pool altogether.693 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Margaret Costello
