I propose to take Questions Nos. 29 and 32 together.
In the greater Dublin area, ferry terminals are located at Dublin Port and Dún Laoghaire Harbour and the Government has no plans to change this existing arrangement.
The organisation and improvement of ferry facilities in the greater Dublin area is a complex issue. Among the factors concerned are future traffic projections, commercial demands and the comfort and safety of passengers. The interim harbour board, which I recently established, has had discussions with Sealink concerning the proposed development of the harbour's terminal facilities. Consideration of the issues involved is, of necessity, time consuming and I do not wish to pre-empt the board's consideration of the matter.
