ITEM NO. 77
Question: Councillor B. Dennehy
“To ask the Chief Executive to outline the maintenance programme for
mechanical play equipment in St Catherine’s Playground, Rush and to ask that a
maintenance inspection or overhaul be carried out ASAP?”
Reply:
All the playgrounds in Fingal are inspected Daily(visualy), Weekly (written) and an
annual ROSPA certified inspection is carried out to ensure it is meeting the
required safety standards. As issues are identified at any of these stages the
appropriate measures are taken to ensure safety at all times and repair as
practicable as possible. Repair works have been carried out in St Catherines
playground over the last five weeks, and the annual inspections were carried out
recently so any recommendations made as part of the these detailed inspections
will also be carried out.
