Co-ordinated by Monaghan Local Community Development Committee’s Equality sub group this annual weeklong programme aims to celebrate equality, inclusion and diversity in our county. 2018 promises to be another week of celebration and activity. A wide range of events, activities and celebrations will take place throughout the week that raise awareness of the many different supports that are available to people who may feel socially excluded and to raise awareness throughout the county of the barriers some people in our society experience on a daily basis.
This year’s social inclusion week sees the introduction of Monaghan LCDC Equality sub groups promotional logo. Monaghan together – Unique & United
The equality sub group selected a logo that all members of the community could identify with and would reflect all the individuals and communities of the county. The finger print visible on the logo reflects the uniqueness of the population, while the colours throughout the map of the county reflect the tapestry of culture that is Monaghan.

Building contractors encouraged to participate
New frameworks are being launched to streamline the tendering process for €100m in contracts for minor building works across the entire public service.
The contracts will be tendered by the Local Government Operational Procurement Centre for the provision of Minor Building Works to public service bodies including 31 local authorities, the HSE, the OPW, the Department of Education and Teagasc.
The contracts will be tendered by way of two new frameworks. Once registered for the Frameworks, contractors will receive alerts to all future minor works projects that meet their stated preferences in terms of scope and location.
Service providers interested in competing for minor building works contracts who meet the minimum competencies can apply online through www.etenders.gov.ie. Applicants may indicate which services, county or region they wish to apply for during the process. Once accepted onto the framework, contractors will be informed of opportunities via the www.supplygov.ie website and can choose to accept or decline projects as they arise.
The frameworks will be tendered from October 2018 with two opportunities for contractors to participate – Minor Building Works Residential and Minor Building Works Commercial. While the scope and complexity of the works will vary significantly, it is envisaged that the average contract value will be in the region of €50,000 for residential works and €100,000 for commercial works.
Building contractors will be required to meet the competencies established for admittance to the frameworks. Building contractors already registered on www.etenders.ie should ensure that they have registered for tenders at a minimum under CPV Code 45000000-7 Construction work and CPV Code 45210000-2 Building construction work in order to be registered for the minor works tendering process.
Moira Murrell, Chairperson of the Local Government Procurement Programme Board said, “The local government sector, as lead partner, brings this opportunity to SMEs in Ireland in 2018. It represents a very significant opportunity for SMEs to deliver key contracts across the public sector. The value of the frameworks is estimated at €100m and the local government sector is eager to communicate this message to all small contractors in the building industry.
“These minor works frameworks are a great opportunity to win business from the public sector. They are open to businesses seeking to gain a first contract or those stepping up to tender for larger or commercial contracts. The local government sector is providing a number of supports to small businesses to help them to engage with this procurement process, including a series of regional information briefings.”
The Local Government Management Agency (LGMA) is encouraging all building contractors to recognise the benefits of public service contracts and to engage with the procurement process. “The public sector is a good client for small businesses. Payment for services delivered within the terms of a contract is guaranteed and, in line with the requirements of the Prompt Payment of Accounts Act, public bodies have a legal obligation to pay their bills on time”, said Paul Dunne, Chief Executive Officer of the Local Government Management Agency.
Regional Information Briefings
Interested building service providers are invited to attend one of eight regional briefings on the frameworks taking place around the country in mid-late September.
Eight briefings will be held between September 17th and September 27th in Mayo, Kerry, Cork, Dublin, Laois, Wexford, Cavan and Donegal. Full details are available at lgma.eventbrite.com.
These sessions will outline the frameworks and the opportunities for businesses and will be supported by InterTradeIreland who will provide advice to businesses about registering and tendering on www.etenders.ie, the Irish Government’s electronic tendering platform administered by the Office of Government Procurement.
“InterTradeIreland welcomes the invitation from the local government sector to participate in these briefings and work with the sector to support procurement opportunities for small and microbusinesses”, said Grant Gilmore, InterTradeIreland Director of Programmes and Business Services.

Notice is hereby given that the audit of the accounts of the above-named local government authority for the financial year ended on the 31st day of December, 2017 will be commenced by Mr. Brendan Leane, Local Government Auditor on the 18th day of September 2018. In accordance with article 17 of the Local Government (Financial and Audit Procedures) Regulations 2014, objections to any matter or matters contained in the said several accounts will be considered by the Local Government Auditor during the audit.
Written notice of any proposed objection, setting out the relevant particulars and grounds on which it is to be made, should be sent to the above named Local Government Auditor at Monaghan County Council within ten days of the commencement of the audit.

The Finance (Local Property Tax) Act 2012 (as amended), makes specific provision that the Elected Members of a local authority may pass a formal resolution to vary the basic rate of the Local Property Tax for their administrative area by a percentage known as the Local Adjustment Factor. Article 10 of the Local Property Tax (Local Adjustment Factor) Regulations 2014 requires a local authority that has decided to vary the basic rate of the local property tax within its administrative area to give public notice of that decision.
In pursuance of the provisions of section 20 of the FINANCE (LOCAL PROPERTY TAX) ACT 2012 (as amended), I the undersigned hereby notify the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government of the passing of a resolution at a meeting of Monaghan County Council on 3rd September 2018 to the effect that the basic rate of local property tax should not be varied for the year 2019 in respect of relevant residential properties situated in the local authority’s administrative area.
