Derek Mitchell provides updates on several infrastructure projects and issues in Greystones and the surrounding areas:
1) The Greystones Harbour development has unveiled new boat access facilities including slipways and parking, with more areas scheduled to open later.
2) A new secondary school will be built in Greystones by 2014 to address growing demand. Mitchell advocates for an Educate Together model.
3) Traffic congestion at the M11/N11 junction is a serious problem, and Mitchell discusses short and long term plans to improve capacity and merging lanes. However, local opposition has delayed the short term solution.
Opposition to st matthews school downside_expansiondownsidecommunity
The proposed expansion of St. Matthew's School to build a new junior school on Green Belt land in Downside is opposed by over 70% of the local community for three main reasons: it would develop on inappropriate Green Belt site that is also in a Conservation Area, it would increase traffic and negatively impact wildlife and the environment, and there are better options for providing additional school places.

After a severe recession, Ireland faces high unemployment levels that may become structural if not addressed. Unemployment surged from 4.4% in 2007 to 13.3% in 2010, and long-term unemployment has increased sharply. Wage flexibility and strengthening work incentives are needed to boost employment and prevent unemployment from persisting. The government has taken steps like expanding training and work programs, but more may be needed to connect the long-term unemployed to available jobs in the recovery.

This document summarizes upcoming reforms to the EU agriculture policy and their implications for Irish agriculture. Key points include:
- The EU agriculture budget for 2014-2020 will remain at 2013 levels despite economic crisis. Ireland receives €1.8 billion, with €1.3 billion for direct payments and €350 million for rural development.
- Direct payments will be redistributed across EU members to reduce disparities, with Ireland's payments per hectare expected to decrease significantly under the new system.
- 30% of the budget will be dedicated to "greening" incentives to protect the environment and climate. This brings new requirements around crop diversification, grasslands, and ecological focus areas.

Greystones Harbour in Ireland has a long history of silting and wall collapses dating back to 1888. Studies were conducted from the 1980s to 1999 to determine how to repair the harbour. In 2005, plans were approved to build a new harbour that would serve as a focal point for the expanding town. Construction began in 2008 and faced challenges from storms, but the new harbour opened in November 2011. It includes 230 berths, a boardwalk, beach, homes, shops and other facilities, and was completed with little government funding.
The document summarizes proposed changes to bus routes in the North West area of Dublin. Key points include:

The document discusses reducing uncertainty in Ireland's economy by addressing uncertainty around banks and other factors. It notes that projections of growth, budgets, and bank loan losses have often lacked acknowledgment of uncertainty. Reducing uncertainty facing the Irish economy is a priority. While EU/IMF support provides funding, it does not directly address "tail risk" or uncertainty. Over the next few years, Ireland needs to demonstrate reduced debt levels and lower bank tail risk through continued fiscal reforms and further analysis of bank loan books to reduce perceived risk and uncertainty.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

3. M11 / N11 Traffic Jams
Very serious traffic jams happen where the motorway
ends going South, sometimes stretching back 4 miles.
This is the oldest dual-carriageway around Dublin and
needs upgrading to cope with current traffic volumes.
For many years I have been raising this with the
National Roads Authority, the Council and the Dublin
Regional Authority to get the problem solved. Problems
with cars merging and queuing on the exit ramps send
‘waves’ of delays back reducing speed and the capacity
of the road.
Short Term. The NRA produced a short term solution and had
€2m to fund it last year. However, Bray members of Wicklow
County Council have rejected, thus delaying, this solution as they
have got the false impression that these changes will make the
traffic on Bray’s main street worse. However the opposite is true.
The Kilcroney roundabout at the South Bray junction will be
replaced by traffic lights. This will allow space for 2 right turn
lanes into the Southern Cross Road and 1 straight ahead, instead
of just 1 now. This will increase capacity by 10% and eliminate
the present queue going back to the N11.
The on and off lanes at Fassaroe junction will be lengthened to
modern standards to encourage faster merging. Traffic lights will
be placed on the N11 access ramp to temporally stop traffic
merging when there is a slow ‘wave’ on the main road. These will
also go green if more than 10 cars are waiting. This technique is
used on Urban Motorways in the UK and USA but probably not
in Ireland before.
The Bray North junction would also be improved with this plan
and Dun Laoghaire Council approved this change in 2010.
Next time you are sitting in this traffic jam remember the
solution has been delayed by the Bray Councillors!
Long Term. A study is being done for a long term solution.
Probably a third lane and a better and safer junction at
Kilmacanogue are needed. I am a member of the Dublin Regional
Civic Forum
Authority and have got the Regional Planning Guidelines altered
to specifically include this scheme; this being one of the few
changes made by Councillors to the Guidelines. Money is now Fine Gael will be holding a Civic Forum to

I am also pressing for the bus shelter in Charlesland and for the
