The Office of Public Works at the request of my Department have prepared a detailed report and estimate of costs for the dredging of Dingle harbour. The cost of this work is estimated to be in excess of £1.2 million. I regret that the limited funds available to me will not permit of this work being carried out in the near future. It will, however, remain a high priority with my Department when funds become available.
