242 Mr. Hughes asked the Minister for the Marine the proposals, if any, he has to complete the development of Darby's Point, County Mayo to accord with the original proposals of Mayo County Council. [3891/95]
The original development proposal submitted by Mayo County Council to the Department of the Marine in respect of the Fishery Harbour Development Programme 1989-1993, provided for a pier extension and development scheme at Darby's Point pier at a cost of £750,000. This scheme was included in the Department's 1989-1993 programme. However, due to limited funding and higher than anticipated costs arising on a number of other projects, it was not possible to undertake the planned development works at this harbour.
