• Total net sales space of new centres opened 2005-2006. = 230,000 sq.m.
• 10% of then total market spend in Ireland. (approx. €24.75bn ).
• approx. 395,000 sq m gross of additional retail space of Larger developments
• The full retail development pipeline (assuming 100% completion) would represent a 23% addition to the current stock (GDA).
• Unbuilt grants equates to 17% of existing total convenience stock & 26% comparison
• Equivalent to 12 Dundrum Town Centres.- Retail Planning Guidelines for the GDA (4.9)

Without downward movement in rent.......the industry will move from a “full serve” model to a “self-serve” model, and a further 40,000 jobs will be lost (additional to the 35,000 lost in 2009).

The reality is.......that most shoppers, especially families, do not have the luxury of daily shopping (as in other parts of Europe) and will do one or two big shopping trips per week, necessitating the use of private transport
-Retail Planning Guidelines for the GDA (4.41)
who cares?
![Page 12: The Future of Town Centres, Town Centre Management Strategies](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042815/55862db3d8b42ac54a8b4cee/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Many of the older inner-suburban centres, ...... now no longer have competitive tenant mixes, suitable shop sizes and attractive shopping environments. These centres need to be revitalised, extended and in some instances, re-invented.

The Dalkey Dilemma

Policy based response has not worked, is inadequate and too passive to address the crisis:
Town centres require management that is:
• full-time
• pro-active
• knowledgeable
• autonomous
