Vol. 250 No. 3

Ceisteanna-Questions. Oral Answers. - Fencing of Mine Shafts.

25.

asked the Minister for Local Government whether he will arrange with Cork County Council to wire and fence in the mine shafts and ponds near Urhan, Eyeries, County Cork in the interests of public safety.

All sanitary authorities have been requested by my Department to exercise their powers to take protective measures in respect of dangerous places, which would include dangerous mine shafts and ponds, in their districts. It is, however, a matter for the sanitary authority concerned to decide what action, if any, should be taken in particular cases.
