15. Notice of Motion Proposed by Proposed Councillor McCully, seconded Councillor Kane referred from the Council Meeting held on 06 May 2025:

This Council notes the impact of second homes and short-term holiday rentals on the housing stock supply for residents of the Borough; reaffirms our belief that powers to regulate such should be devolved to local councils; and commits to developing a proposal to the Northern Ireland Executive, alongside an agreed lobbying action plan, to secure such additional powers, within the next three months.

Once developed and adopted, an update on the matter will be a standing item on the agenda of the Corporate Policy & Resources Committee. Additionally, the Mayor and Chief Executive will write to all other councils in Northern Ireland to encourage them to engage in similar lobbying efforts.

16. Notice of Motion Proposed by Councillor Jonathan McAuley, seconded by Councillor Kyle referred from the Council Meeting held on 03 June 2025:

Following the successful event ran by council for the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe, I propose that council look at an event to remember and commemorate the end of the second world war (VJ Day).

As significant, as VE day was in 1945 we need to remember the sacrifice by many of our service personnel who continued the war for freedom for a further three months.
