County and City Development Boards
- Request for Proposals for Briefing Paper

 

Comhar Sustainable Development Council (SDC) is inviting proposals from interested individuals and organisations to prepare a briefing paper on how best to integrate environment and sustainable development dimensions into the work of County and City Development Boards - specifically through the Boards’ proposed new environment sub-committees.

A green paper on Local Government has just been published (May 2008), with the view to developing a white paper. It is envisaged that this will provide the framework for strengthened local democracy and local participation.

Comhar SDC has decided that one of its key priorities for 2008 is to bring forward proposals to address priorities for developing local participatory involvement in implementing sustainable development at local level and to examine best practice in this area.
