Kilkenny PPN is pleased to announce the submission of our response to the Draft Strategic Policy Committee Scheme 2024-2029, recently published by the Kilkenny County Council.
Our submission represents the collective feedback of Kilkenny PPN member groups from across County Kilkenny. It outlines our concerns with the proposed reduction of PPN representation across several SPCs.
We’ve strongly advocated for the preservation—and where appropriate, the expansion—of sectoral representation to ensure that divers community voices are not only heard but meaningfully integrated into local policy-making. Our recommendations also include proposals to improve transparency, communication, training, and the accessibility of meetings for all volunteer representatives.
