Vol. 380 No. 1

Written Answers. - Harbour Improvement Problem.

23.

asked the Minister for the Marine if he will give details of the harbour improvement works to be carried out in 1988.

The total allocation in respect of grants towards development works at commerical and fishery harbours in 1988 is £3.1 million. Details of fishery harbour projects proposed for assistance in 1988 are included in a tabular statement which I propose to circulate in the Official Report.

Decisions have not yet been taken in regard to the commercial harbours to be grant-aided. The projects being considered are the completion of pier repairs at Fenit, major quay reconstruction at Drogheda, quay repairs at Dundalk and extension of container facilities at Dublin Port.
