Return to the Web
After too long away, I’ve finally managed to get the time to re-launch my website here at dermotlacey.ie. 2007 was an extraordinarily busy year with the General Election, when my friend and colleague Ruairi Quinn was returned to the Dáil as Labour Party TD for Dublin South East, keeping our minds elsewhere. In the interim,…

Fire Brigade Access on Narrow Streets
I tabled the following question at tonight’s meeting of Dublin City Council. Readers might be interested in the reply: Q10.

A Tribute to Ald. Joe Doyle
(Originally published in News 4 A Tribute To Joe Doyle By Dermot Lacey On June 12th next, for the first time since 1979, this area will no longer be represented at either Dublin City Council or in the Dail or Seanad by Joe Doyle. It is quite simply a record of twenty-five years unbroken, dedicated…

Scully’s Field (Letter to Residents)
11th March 2004 “Scully’s Field can be Saved” Dear Resident, I understand that many of you have been circulated with a leaflet containing incorrect information on the zoning of Scully’s Field.
