Local authorities investigate antisocial behaviour involving local authority tenants. If necessary, they may involve An Garda Síochána (national police).
Local authorities, together with other stakeholders, manage public health and safety by regularly inspecting local authority buildings and work activities, investigating accidents and incidents and taking appropriate action.
You must apply to the local authority for a permit if you want to temporarily put a skip or mobile appliance in a parking place or erect hoarding or scaffolding on a public road.
Local authorities may run initiatives such as National Bike Week, Mobility Week, Car Free Day and the Pedometer Challenge to promote sustainable travel.
