My second question at today’s (21st March) Municipal District meeting, ‘ In relation to the statement in the Annual Report which states that the council has 80% of the vote relating to the Riverbank Arts Centre, can the council confirm what does this mean and how is 80% of a vote executed?
Here is the report issued by: Ms S Kavanagh, Director of Service, Economic Community and Cultural Development: There are five Directors on the Board of Management of Riverbank Arts Centre Ltd. Each Director has one vote. Three of the Directors were nominated by Kildare County Council and one is a Kildare County Council official therefore Kildare County Council has 80% of the voting rights as a percentage of the total Board of Management.
