Vol. 129 No. 12

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Baliinskelligs Turf-cutting Scheme.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce whether he is aware of the necessity for the development of a turf-cutting scheme at Ballinskelligs; and, if so, whether Bord na Móna will make the necessary arrangements in this regard at the earliest possible date.

I am informed by Bord na Móna that from their experience of two bogs already being worked in South Kerry, they consider it would be difficult to find an economic market for any increased production in that area. Bord na Móna do not at present propose to undertake production on bogs in the Ballinskelligs area.
