Question:

328 Mr. Cuffe asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the report that he may have received in regard to the odour issues and any other problems arising from the operation of the Ringsend waste water treatment plant in Dublin City; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31122/06]

Written answers

Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (Mr. Roche)

The operation of the regional waste water treatment plant in Ringsend is the responsibility of Dublin City Council and my Department has no direct function in the matter. I understand that remedial measures to deal with odour issues are being carried out by the plant operators on behalf of the City Council.
