381 Deputy Jan O’Sullivan asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the cost incurred by his Department and statutory bodies under his remit, including the national parks and wildlife service, in relation to a local dispute (details supplied) in County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerThe costs incurred by my Department in relation to the containment of dung in Killarney National Park are set out in the table. I am satisfied that this expenditure was necessarily incurred and represents a good investment in making Killarney National Park, which attracts over one million visitors a year, a cleaner, safer and more attractive place to visit.
