Question:

158 Mr. O’Connor asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources if he will discuss with the ESB the possibility of the company moving their overhead cables in Tallaght underground; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5177/05]

Written answers

Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources (Mr. N. Dempsey)

The siting of infrastructure, including the placement of cables, is a day-to-day matter for the management of the ESB and Eirgrid and not one in which I have a function.
