3 POLICY 3.1 INTRODUCTION In addition to the suite of planning policy documents relevant to the proposed Liffey Valley Park, there are a range of other policy areas in which pertinent policy exists. Policies and programmes in the following areas are therefore briefly reviewed in this chapter: • National and Regional Development; • Recreation, Amenity and Play; • Sports; and • Tourism. 3.2 OVERVIEW OF RELEVANT NATIONAL, REGIONAL AND LOCAL POLICIES 33 .. 22 .. 11 NNaatt ii oonnaall DDeevvee ll ooppmmeenntt PPllaann The National Development Plan (1) (NDP) details a programme of structured and targeted investment in the development of Ireland over the period to 2006. It includes investment in a range of policy areas including rural development, health, water and local development. The Plan aims to provide funding for crucial areas of public policy from domestic sources, with a decreasing reliance on the role of EU structural funds. There are three core areas of funding: social inclusion (including recreational infrastructure), balanced regional development and rural development. The Plan incorporates a number of specific areas of funding, of which the following main Southern and Eastern Region funds are of relevance in the relation to the proposed Liffey Valley Park: • Angling – €11.47m; • Conservation – €46.61m; • Environment (Sustainable Development) – €0.018m; • Habitat Protection – €46.61m; • Tourism (Environmental Management) – €8.76m; • Tourism (Development of Major Attractions) – €101.54m • Inland Waterways – €23.76m.
