Should you find a private rental property in the jurisdiction of any other Local Authority in Ireland, you can receive a HAP payment for that property through Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council. This will only apply should your total annual net income not exceed the income limit set out in that jurisdiction.

If you are unsure what the income limits in any Local Authority are, you can contact that Local Authority directly for clarification.

Under the Temporary Protection Directive, displaced Ukrainians have the right to work and to receive social welfare payments in Ireland. You need a PPS number to do so, which can be organised for you once you arrive in Ireland.

Mpore details on social welfare are available from the Department of Social Protection here.

If you are subjected to noise nuisance from domestic or residential premises you may apply directly to your local District Court for a Court Order under Section 108 of the Environmental Protection Agency Act, 1992. Further information regarding Section 108 Notices and noise pollution is available by clicking on the attached guide to the Noise Regulations Leaflet  (pdf - 2.24MB)

Persons affected by noise nuisance caused by tenants in private rented dwellings may also apply directly to the Private Residential Tenacies Board (PRTB) at www.prtb.ie or ph. (01) 635 0600 to resolve the problem. The PRTB can legally direct landlords to ensure that their tenants comply with the terms of their tenacy agreements regarding noise and other forms of anti-social behaviour.

If you are subjected to noise nuisance caused by tenants in Council-owned dwellings, you can make a complaint directly to the Anti-Social Behaviour Section of the Housing Dept.

If you are not happy with the rateable valuation on your property, you may apply in writing to the Commissioner of Valuation to have the valuation of the property revised. However, you may only apply for a revision of valuation where there is a physical material change to the property, for example, increase/decrease in floor area. The application must be accompanied by a fee.  The current fee for listing a property is €250.00.

The Rating Authority may also request a revision of the valuation of a property.  The Commissioner of Valuation may also initiate revisions of valuation, see http://www.valoff.ie/en/

There are six categories of information available as follows:

• the state of the elements of the environment e.g. air, water, soil, land, landscape, biological diversity
• factors affecting, or likely to affect, the elements of the environment, e.g. energy, noise, radiation, waste and other releases into the environment
• measures designed to protect the elements of the environment e.g. policies, legislation, plans, programs, environmental agreements
• reports on the implementation of environmental legislation
• analyses and assumptions used within the framework of measures designed to protect the environment
• the state of human health and safety, the food chain, cultural sights and built structures in as much as they may be affected by the elements of the environment.

Under the mandate of legislation, we must refuse to give you access to environmental information on the following grounds:

• personal information
• information supplied by a third party voluntarily
• material the disclosure of which would make it more likely that the environment to which such material related would be damaged
• confidentiality of the proceedings of public authorities.

Under the AIE Regulations we may refuse to give you access to information on certain grounds:

• international relations, national defence or public security
• the course of justice
• commercial or industrial confidentiality
• intellectual property rights
• material in the course of completion
• internal communications with public authorities
• the request is considered to be unreasonable due to the volume or range of information sought or the request is too general.

A public consultation process for this project was previously undertaken when we made an application for consent under the Foreshore Act to the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government in 2012.

Drawings and reports describing the proposal were made available for inspection at County Hall, Dún Laoghaire, at the Council’s offices in Dundrum and at Dún Laoghaire Garda Station, and the public was invited to make submissions on this scheme.

On foot of this, we underwent a Part 8 consultation process for a period of two months in 2015 where the public were invited to make submissions on the scheme.

It is anticipated that the baths will be completed by Spring 2020.
