Letterkenny Municipal Council has been warned that somebody will be hurt if age restrictions and signage are not put on the new town park outdoor gymnasium.
Cllr Jimmy Kavanagh appealed to the council to put up signs warning that the equipment should not be used by young people.
“This equipment is not designed for use by children and a child will be hurt at some stage. I would actually ask how the council stand on this legally if someone is hurt,” he said.
The motion was backed by Cllr Gerry McMonagle.
He said that theme parks carry similar restrictions and warnings.
“Youngsters could go on this apparatus which is not intended for them and they could sustain a fall,” he said.
