Procedure to ensure DCC does not destroy Notices of Public Assembly

dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | press release Friday September 15, 2006 17:59 by John Kelly - CFSD

Dublin City Council's (DCC) position on posters for public meetings and public assembly is to grant permission to requests for such events.

On May 22, 2006, DCC, following a sustained campaign by concerned citizens overturned it's unconstitutional blanket ban on such notices.

The process for persons wanting to advertise their events requires them to write to Michael Phillips City Manager and Drector of Traffic at michael.phillips@dublincity.ie and refer him to the change of policy as above and inform him you will be placing your notices on public property and will remove same after the event. Do not put your posters on Traffic Light poles.
