Motion

Noting the unanimous decision of Dublin City Council’s Arts Strategic Policy Committee today to instruct city council officials to reverse its recent decision to cancel the literary event “The Question of the Eighth” with Una Mullally, Elaine Feeney, Tara Flynn and Emmet Kirwan at the upcoming International Literature Festival Dublin, the elected members of Dublin City Council call on city council management to acknowledge and respect the unanimous vote of the members of the Arts committee by moving immediately to implement the motion and re-instate “The Question of the Eighth” literary event.

"I will not be in a position to change my stance."
