Motion

“That the Council sets up a Stakeholders Forum (to include Members of the public, businesses, experts in the control of birds and Council Members) to implement and review control methods for culling Herring Gulls. Herring Gulls are a nuisance throughout the city causing problems such as noise pollution, attacking people and pets, fouling, damage to property and picking apart plastic rubbish bags left for collection. This motion supports the preservation and protection of all other bird species and their habitats in accordance with Irish and EU legislation.”
