Vol. 410 No. 1
7 Tomás Mac Giolla asked the Minister for the Marine if he will outline his position on the application by Dublin Port and Docks Board to reclaim land at the North Wall to facilitate roll-on roll-off developments there and if he will make a statement on the matter.
(Limerick West): I assume that the Deputy is referring to Dublin Port and Docks Board's application to reclaim an area of 21 hectares of foreshore, east of the former Sealink freight terminal and to construct a quay on the river side of the reclaimed area.
The board have asked me to defer making any decision on their application until after the board's officials have completed discussions with interest groups concerned at the proposed development.
