Minister for the Environment (Mr. Flynn)

I am taking Questions Nos. 463, 464 and 465 together.

Dublin County Council has been advised that the cost of providing redesigned parapet railings to the bridge at Stonebridge Road will be accepted as a charge against road grants, subject to the submission of acceptable proposals for the railings. The local authority has also been informed that the cost of providing additional walls (similar to the wall already provided in the vicinity of New Vale) at Assumpta Park and at Nos. 32-45 New Vale will be accepted as a charge against road grants.
