View answerIn January 2004 the Government decided to proceed with the development of a sports campus on the State-owned lands at Abbotstown. Campus and Stadium Ireland Development Limited was requested to put forward proposals for the development of a sports campus. I have received a development control plan from it for a sports campus at Abbotstown. This plan provides a framework for the development of a sports campus, focusing in particular on the first phase of the development. It is my intention to present proposals to the Government shortly on the development of a sports campus at Abbotstown.
