Question:22 Mr. Harte asked the Minister for the Marine if he will make sufficient moneys available to provide a new crane at Portaleen Pier, Glengad, County Donegal as the present one is faulty and extremely dangerous.
Written Answers. - New Crane for County Donegal Pier.
My Department's fishery harbour development programme, which covers the period up to the end of 1993, followed a detailed study of the infrastructural needs of the fishing industry and also relied, to a significant extent, on the priorities submitted by the local authorities. On this basis it is difficult to see how funds could be made available by my Department for the provision of a new crane at Portaleen Pier, Glengad during the period of the programme.
