Community Funding Lead (Grade VII)
CONTEXT LAWPRO is leading a ‘new approach’ to water management in Ireland that involves coordination and close cooperation between local authorities, WFD implementing bodies and stakeholders for the development and implementation of national River Basin Management Plans. The overall aim of this approach is to protect and restore good water quality in Ireland’s rivers, lakes, estuaries, groundwater, and coastal waters through integrated catchment management. Achieving that aim will require active involvement of local authorities and other public bodies, water users and local communities. Implementation of the River Basin Management Plan is co-ordinated on a regional basis by the five water and environment management committees, comprising representatives of each local authority in the Region and the EPA. This structure drives collaboration and integration, both within local authorities, between local authorities and externally with other public agencies. The shared service’s approach to delivery includes all stakeholders through a multi-disciplinary, multi-agency structure. This shared service arrangement takes account of the need to deliver maximum benefit with limited resource availability.
