Temple Bar trust set to be subsumed

Temple Bar Cultural Trust — the agency charged with promoting events in the cultural area — is expected to be subsumed into Dublin City Council early next year as part of a cost-saving exercise.

It is understood a 90-day consultation period regarding the future of the trust began last week.

After that, however, it is unclear as to what will happen — with it either remaining as a standalone entity, being subsumed into the city council, or being wound up altogether.
