253 Mr. Leonard asked the Minister for Transport, Energy and Communications the proposals, if any, there are to have the north/south electricity interconnector restored. [2029/94]
The recent developments in relation to Northern Ireland give rise to optimism that the interconnector between the ESB and Northern Ireland Electricity Systems could be restored. The ESB and Northern Ireland Electricity are currently assessing the issue involved and I hope that there will be a successful outcome to his assessment.
