Vol. 267 No. 12

Written Answers. - Oil Refinery Establishment.

92.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce whether he has any statement to make on the rumoured proposal that an oil refinery is to be established on the shores of Lough Swilly, County Donegal.

I presume the Deputy is referring to recent Press reports regarding the possible siting of an oil refinery at Lenan, Lough Swilly.

I understand that preliminary discussions have taken place between the promoters and the Government Departments and agencies concerned but no decision has yet been reached. The Deputy will appreciate that the discussions are confidential at this stage.
