Vol. 162 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Repair of Mayo Piers.

asked the Minister for Finance if steps will be taken in the near future for the repair of (a) the Surgeview pier, Blacksod, and (b) the Porturlin Pier, Corratigue, Ballina.

The Commissioners of Public Works have been asked by the Minister for Agriculture to furnish engineering advice on the question of repairing the existing pier or constructing a new one at Faulmore, Surgeview, County Mayo. Before a report can be furnished it will be necessary to make a detailed survey of the site, which it is hoped to carry out this year.

The works at Porturlin have been completed.

Is it not a fact that such a survey and such a detailed examination were year?

Not on that part. According to my information, it has not. I shall have the matter investigated.
