Fresh calls to rename Dublin park after Boyzone's Stephen Gately

A Dublin councillor is calling for Dublin City Council to review its 20-year-rule for naming public spaces after fresh calls for a Northside park be renamed after tragic Boyzone star Stephen Gately.

Cllr Damien O'Farrell told Dublin Live that he has put forward a motion to the Council for May or June asking them to revise its rule for naming public spaces and to create a waiting list for names.

Names that have been put forward include Gately, former Lord Mayor Sean "Dublin Bay" Loftus - who passed away in 2010 - and singer and actor Maureen Potter.
