Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council is set to recommend the dissolution of Dun Laoghaire Harbour Company and the transfer of its assets to local authority control. At a special meeting on Tuesday next, members will be told by chief executive Philomena Poole that the best option for the future of the harbour and the local authority is for Dun Laoghaire Harbour Company to be dissolved and its assets transferred to the local authority. Dun Laoghaire Harbour is currently operated by the Harbour Company which is responsible to the Department to Transport. The first of these, called Option (a) is the dissolution without winding up of the harbour company. Option (b) is the transfer of the harbour asset to the local authority and the dissolution of the Harbour Company.
