High Speed Broadband installed in Tullycorbet Hall under Connected Communities Initiative

High Speed Broadband installed in Tullycorbet Hall under Connected Communities.

Tullycorbet Parish Hall has become the latest Broadband Connection Points to go live within Co. Monaghan under the Connected Communities Initiative, delivering internal and external wifi in the community hall and the neighbouring car park up to 150 Mb/sec. It was a momentous week in the Tullycorbet area, with NBI crews out on the ground completing tree trimming and preparatory work in advance of high speed fibre rollout during the summer. This is truly a community BCP, with local landowner Seamus Treanor facilitating this project by allowing his property to be used as an intermediate site to bounce the broadband signal down to the community centre.

 

The Connected Communities initiative delivers high speed broadband wirelessly to local community facilities in advance of the full rollout of fibre to every home and business in the area which does not have access to high speed broadband. More than 3,700 premises are expected to get new high speed fibre across Co. Monaghan in the course of 2021, representing almost 23% of the 15,000 premises to be covered.

The rollout of BCPs will continue in the coming months with five additional BCPs set to be connected in the course of 2021. This rollout is being coordinated by the Monaghan County Council’s Broadband Officer on behalf of the Government of Ireland.

The Government of Ireland is also assisting many of these BCPs through the Town and Village Renewal scheme. A number of BCPs have had additional IT equipment and Video conferencing facilities installed in recent months, funded by Dept. of Rural and Community Development under Town and Village Renewal and by Monaghan Co. Co. Municipal Districts.

The full list of BCPs which are now up and running and which have external wifi available is:

  • Carn Resource Centre
  • Connons Community Centre
  • Corcaghan Community Centre
  • Corduff-Raferagh Community Centre
  • Latton Resource Centre
  • Monaghan GAA Centre of Excellence
  • Mullyash Commnuity Centre
  • The Wetlands, Ballybay
  • Tannagh Outdoor Education Centre
  • Tullycorbet Parish Hall

Connected Communities is an initiative of the Government of Ireland, in partnership with Vodafone and National Broadband Ireland.

Commenting on the initiative, Heather Humphreys T.D., Minister for Rural and Community Development said “I want to congratulate Monaghan on the launch of their BCP network as part of the Connected Communities Initiative.

Connected Communities will unlock the potential in rural communities, transforming the lives of its residents.

Whether that is connected working, the creative arts, eHealth or educational supports, the BCPs will be supported to provide the services that their communities need.

These premises are not merely a stop-gap measure ahead of the arrival of the National Broadband Plan, it is our hope that they will instead become long-term community assets, fixtures of their communities, providing next generation services to Ireland’s rural heartlands.”

 

Peter Hendrick, Chief Executive Officer at National Broadband Ireland, commented:  “NBI is proud to be empowering the Broadband Connection Points programme by installing community facilities with essential access to free high-speed internet access. As our teams continue to make progress with our Fibre-to-the-Home rollout to bring high-speed broadband to every home, farm, business and school in the Intervention Area, Broadband Connection Points pave the way for the wider rollout of the National Broadband Plan.”

 

Anne O’Leary, CEO Vodafone Ireland said: “Vodafone is proud to partner with Government on Connected Communities, providing best in class WiFi to rural communities across Ireland. Today, we are delighted to see the launch of Monaghan Connected Communities, bringing high-speed connectivity across the county. Technology and connectivity has afforded us a sense of normality in truly abnormal times and has supported the dramatic and necessary shift to online in terms of how we live, work and interact. These Connected Communities will help Monaghan embrace this digital society by giving opportunities for remote work, study, community and digital skills training and a host of other digitally enabled services. As they evolve and grow, Connected Communities will provide an opportunity to transform the economic and social fabric of rural towns and communities by addressing the digital divide, improving lives, creating jobs and stimulating rural economic growth”.

Preferred Route Corridors Announced for the N2 Ardee to Castleblayney and N2 Clontibret to Border Road Schemes

Preferred Route Corridors Announced for the N2 Ardee to Castleblayney and N2 Clontibret to Border Road Schemes

The Project Team announces its Preferred Route Corridors and would like to thank those who submitted feedback on the Emerging Preferred Route Corridors and engaged with the Team during the consultation which ran between August and October 2020.

Monaghan County Council is working in association with Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) to upgrade two sections of the N2/A5 Dublin-Derry Road. One of the projects, the Clontibret to Border road scheme, will upgrade a 28km section of the N2. Monaghan County Council is working in partnership with Louth County Council and TII on the second project – an upgrade of a 32km section of the N2 between Ardee and Castleblayney. Together with other improvements planned for the N2/A5 route, these proposed schemes will significantly improve transport connectivity along the N2 and provide safer and more efficient access to other strategic national roads. These are important projects to enhance key North/South and Regional connectivity and to improve road safety.

Monaghan County Council has appointed Jacobs Consulting Engineers (Jacobs) to advance the project through the planning and design process. Emerging Preferred Route Corridors were published for both projects in August 2020, and a period of public consultation ran until the 5th October 2020. The Project Team would like to sincerely thank the public for their feedback and engagement with them throughout the Emerging Preferred Route Corridor Consultation. Over 350 meetings were held with interested stakeholders throughout the consultation period, which included remote meetings and in-person physically-distanced meetings in venues in Monaghan Town and Carrickmacross. ‘We were delighted to have been able to offer members of the public an opportunity to talk with the N2 Project Team via telephone, video call or face to face appointment during our recent public consultation and would like to sincerely thank the public for engaging with the project team and giving their feedback.’ Said Patricia Monahan, Director of Services for Monaghan County Council.

Over 80 written submissions were received on the Clontibret to Border Road Scheme and over 180 on the Ardee to Castleblayney Road Scheme. A Post Consultation Report has now been prepared for each project, documenting the consultation process and outlining the type of feedback received – the Post Consultation Report is available to download from the project website www.N2MonaghanLouth.ie.

Following review and consideration of the submissions and feedback received, it was determined that there was no new and/or additional information of enough significance to necessitate an amendment to the previously presented Emerging Preferred Route Corridors for either scheme.  Therefore, the Corridors presented at the Emerging Preferred Route Corridor consultation, without any amendments, have been selected as the Preferred Route Corridor Options. Option H: Green+Yellow+Orange is the Preferred Route Corridor Option (‘Preferred Option’) for the Clontibret to Border Road Scheme. On the Ardee to Castleblayney Road Scheme, Option A: Yellow, is the Preferred Route Corridor Option (‘Preferred Option’).

A map of the Preferred Route Corridor for each scheme is available to view on the project website www.N2MonaghanLouth.ie. A leaflet is also being delivered or posted to properties and registered landowners within the Preferred Route Corridors. The preferred Route Corridors are typically 400m wide, however they do not represent the actual width of the road scheme or the lands to be acquired – the corridor indicates the lands within which the N2 road scheme could be developed. The exact details of the land take, earthworks, junction and side road design and property impacts will be developed during the next Phase of the planning and design process.

An Option Selection Report, which documents the process of selecting the Preferred Route Corridors, has now been published for each road scheme and  can be accessed by the public in the following ways;

  • The reports can be viewed or downloaded from the project website (N2MonaghanLouth.ie). A digital copy of the report (on a memory stick) can be requested from the N2 Project Team for those who cannot download the report due to poor internet access.
  • The reports can be viewed by appointment at Council Offices (subject to applicable government restrictions/ guidelines related to COVID-19). Please contact the N2 Project Team to request an appointment.

 

What happens next?

Subject to relevant approvals, further development of the scheme, including design of the road, identifying the landtake required, junction design and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Assessment can now progress. This next phase is planned to take place in 2021 and 2022.

In order to inform the design process, the N2 Project Team will first undertake a range of engineering and environmental site surveys on lands within and around the Preferred Route Corridors. The design team will be in contact with relevant landowners in relation to these surveys.

As the site surveys are completed, the initial design of the road can be progressed. When the design has reached a level of maturity where informed discussions can take place, the N2 Project Team will consult with directly impacted landowners in relation to the initial design and its impact on land and property. Stakeholders and the general public will be kept informed of progress as part of Monaghan and Louth County Council’s commitment to ongoing stakeholder engagement.

Any stakeholders who have queries about the upcoming design process can make contact with the project team by calling the N2 Project Phoneline on 087 340 3786, or by email ArdeeCastleblayney@N2MonaghanLouth.ie / ClontibretBorder@N2MonaghanLouth.ie.

 

 

Statement by An Cathaoirleach of Monaghan County Council Councillor Colm Carthy on the Final Report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes

February 8, 2021

Statement by An Cathaoirleach of Monaghan County Council Councillor Colm Carthy on the Final Report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes

As Cathaoirleach of Monaghan County Council and on behalf of the elected members, I wish to apologise unreservedly to the women and girls who were incarcerated, their babies, the survivors, those now deceased and their relatives, for the pain and suffering caused while resident in Mother and Baby Homes or in the County Home in Castleblayney, while it was under the control of Monaghan County Council.
An Taoiseach Michéal Martin T.D. issued a formal apology on behalf of the State to former residents of the Mother and Baby Home and County Homes institutions, following the publication of the Final Report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes, (on January 12th).

The Government now intends to give detailed consideration to the Report over the coming months with a view to developing a comprehensive Government Action Plan to address eight specific themes to include:

• A survivor-centred approach;
• Apology;
• Access to Personal Information;
• Archiving and Databases;
• Education and Research;
• Memorialisation;
• Restorative Recognition;
• Dignified Burial.

Monaghan County Council, as a public assistance authority, had responsibility for unmarried mothers and their children and the operation of the County Home in Castleblayney until 1970.
The Council sincerely apologises to the residents, their children/adopted people, their families and the relatives of those who resided in the Mother and Baby Homes or the county home, who suffered and were mis-treated while resident there.

Monaghan County Council will actively participate with Government in furthering the development of the Government Action Plan as it relates to local government and as it relates to County Monaghan.

Monaghan County Council commits to supporting local measures that form part of the suite of follow-up actions, for example, in relation to memorialisation and access to archives and records.

In this regard, the Council will request that Government brings forward, as a priority, the legislation required to enable survivors and adopted people the right to access their records and personal information, which will be an important step in addressing the concerns expressed by the residents. We also call for robust supports* to be put in place that are unconditional. Most of all, we ask that the women and girls, and their now adult children, are listened to and respected.

While the Council’s apology cannot undo the pain and suffering, it is an acknowledgement of our deep regret that the women and girls, and their children, were failed by the State and a recognition that the Council was part of that failure.

HSE Public Health North East, An Garda Síochána, Cavan and Monaghan County Council urge the public to stay at home and protect our communities

HSE Public Health North East, An Garda Síochána, Cavan and Monaghan County Council urge the public to stay at home and protect our communities.

The Department of Public Health North East, An Garda Síochána, Cavan and Monaghan County Councils are appealing to the people of Cavan and Monaghan to exert extra efforts in tackling COVID-19 in their communities, to continue to abide by the restrictions by staying at home and following public health advice to stop the spread of the virus.

 

11,764 COVID-19 cases were reported in the North East in 2020 (up to 31/12/2020). Our provisional data indicates that 12,463 COVID-19 cases were reported in the region since the beginning of this year (up to 30/01/2021). There have been more cases reported in January 2021, than in the whole of 2020.

 

In the last 14 days (up to 30/01/2021), there have been 369 new cases of COVID-19 in Cavan and 657 cases in Monaghan.

 

Dr Augustine Pereira, Director of Public Health North East said, “We are seeing a slight decrease in daily infection rates. When the number of new COVID-19 cases decrease, our natural inclination is to drop our guard, which leads to more cases in the community. So long as COVID-19 remains widespread in our community, it continues to present a high risk for our vulnerable population, particularly those in our hospitals, nursing homes and long-term care facilities.”

 

“This latest surge of COVID-19 infections in the community is putting greater pressure on our health services across the region. As our health services treat a significant number of patients with COVID-19, it is essential, now more than ever, that we continue to play our part to bring the infection rates down to suppress the spread of this virus.”

 

“Whilst it seems that this virus is relentless, there is a brighter horizon ahead. The vaccine is currently being rolled out in nursing homes and amongst frontline healthcare workers across the region, for now we need to hold firm” he added.

 

Chief Superintendent for the Cavan/Monaghan Garda Division, Aidan Glacken said, “I want to thank the public for their continued cooperation throughout this pandemic, particularly in the last number of weeks, we know it has been extremely hard on people.”

 

“While we are seeing some improvements in the COVID-19 transmission rates, as a result of the public engaging positively and heeding the advice of our public health officials, there is still a long way to go. A small number of people are putting themselves, their loved ones and everyone they come into contact with at risk by not complying with public health regulations.”

 

“People undertaking non-essential journeys are liable for a fine of €100. In addition, Gardaí can now issue people with a fine for organising a party in their house or for attending such a gathering. The fine for organising a house party is €500 and attending a house party is €150.”

 

“An Garda Síochána continues to provide support for the public health measures through high visibility patrolling, checkpoints, and by providing assistance the most vulnerable in our communities enabling them to stay home and stay safe. All these efforts are being undertaken to protect our communities and save lives.”

 

Chief Executive of Cavan County Council, Mr Tommy Ryan has hailed the efforts of the community in turning the tide against the virus and urged continued vigilance in the coming weeks and months. “We have seen over the past week how the sacrifices and solidarity of communities across Cavan have started to drive down case numbers, but we are not yet where we need to be,” said Mr Ryan.

 

“Our health system locally, and nationally, is still under great strain following the resurgence of the virus and so, I urge the people of Cavan to continue to heed public health advice and to stay at home to help stop community transmission of COVID-19.

 

For those who are medically vulnerable or otherwise isolated, remember that help is at hand. If you require assistance with essentials such as shopping, medicine, or transport to essential appointments, the Cavan Community Call Helpline can assist you. Call Freephone 1800 300 404 or email covidsupport@cavancoco.ie  for assistance. Lines are open 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday,” he added.

 

Eamonn O’Sullivan, Chief Executive of Monaghan County Council, said “This is a very difficult time for everyone, however we must continue to work together to get the virus under control.  It is important that you follow public health advice and unless it is absolutely essential, please stay at home. Our health services are operating at full capacity and by working together we can help to reduce the additional burden placed on them.

We all have a part to play in reducing transmission of this disease in our community, and I must reinforce the message to ‘Stay at Home’. If anyone needs assistance, practical support or someone to talk to, I would ask them to call the Monaghan COVID-19 Community Helpline free on 1800 804 158 or email covidsupport@monaghancoco.ie for assistance. We can get through this together, if we all do our part and adhere to public health guidance.”

The most important action we can take to protect ourselves and others from COVID-19 is to follow the public health advice:
– stay at home, other than for essential reasons
– ensure regular hand washing
– practice good respiratory hygiene
– keep 2m between yourself and other people
– avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth
– wear a mask

Social Enterprises called on to apply to €400,000 fund to address Ireland’s greatest social challenges

Social Enterprises called on to apply to €400,000 fund to address Ireland’s greatest social challenges

● The Social Enterprise Development is a €3.2 Million Fund running from 2018-2022
● €400,000 in cash grants will be made available as well as additional business supports
● Rethink Ireland CEO calls social enterprises ‘critical’ to a just social and economic recovery from Covid-19 pandemic

€400,000 in funding is being made available to social enterprises to help lead the post-Covid economic
and social recovery through Rethink Ireland’s Social Enterprise Development Fund 2021 which was
officially launched recently. The objective of the fund is to find and back the best social
enterprises in Ireland by making cash grants and strategic business support available to Awardees.

Social enterprises are businesses that work primarily to improve the lives of people. Their core
objective is to achieve a social, societal, or environmental impact. Like other businesses, Social
enterprises pursue their objectives by trading in goods and services on an ongoing basis. However,
surpluses generated by social enterprises are re-invested into achieving their core social objectives.

The Social Enterprise Development Fund was created by Rethink Ireland in 2018 in partnership with
Local Authorities Ireland and funded by IPB Insurance and the Department of Rural and Community
Development through the Dormant Accounts Fund.

Since the Fund’s foundation in 2018, the Fund has supported 40 social enterprises with cash grants
and business supports and further 38 through their Genesis & Accelerator Programmes. It has enabled
social enterprises to support 681 people to access employment, (the majority of whom are from
minority groups) and mobilise 2430 volunteers. Previous social enterprises include:

1. Turn2me: Turn2me provides a safe, anonymous and confidential space to anyone aged 12
plus in Ireland seeking support with their mental health and wellbeing 24/7.
2. CyberSafeIreland: CyberSafeIreland empowers children, parents and teachers to navigate the
online world safely and responsibly.
3. Grow Remote: Grow Remote’s mission to enable people to work, live and participate locally
by making remote employment both visible and accessible in their communities.

Commenting today, Minister of State with responsibility for Community Development and Charities
at the Department of Rural and Community Development, Joe O’Brien TD, said: “The Social
Enterprise Development Fund plays an important role in supporting social enterprises who are making
a positive difference to their communities. Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, we have all been
reminded of the importance of strong communities. The Social Enterprise Development Fund 2021
will help to grow Ireland’s strong and vibrant social enterprise sector.”

CEO of Rethink Ireland Deirdre Mortell, said: “Rethink Ireland is delighted to open applications for
the Social Enterprise Development Fund for 2021. Social enterprises are at the heart of addressing
Ireland’s greatest social challenges and strengthening communities. We believe they are playing a vital
role in this pandemic and will play an even more critical role as we recover from the crisis. ”
“social enterprises employ people who would typically be considered far from the labour market,
produce ethical and sustainable products and / or provide vital local services at more affordable rates
than the private sector. They can and will contribute to a just economic, social and sustainable
recovery and we are calling on social enterprises across Ireland to apply to our fund.”

“George Jones, Chairman & Group Non Executive Director IPB Insurance said, ‘We are delighted to
support Rethink Ireland and our Local Authority Members for the fourth year of the combined €3.2m
Social Enterprise Development Fund. This initiative aims to provide critical support to the very best
social enterprises across Ireland. Last year we were thrilled to support a social enterprise in every local
authority area in the country for the first time and we are again encouraging social enterprises in every
county to apply to this year’s Fund’. (SIGNED OFF)

The 2021 Fund will be open for applications  until the 5th of March 2021.
