Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 October 2011
367 Deputy Timmy Dooley asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government, further to Parliamentary Question No. 239 of 20 July 2011, if the Dun na Rí estate in County Clare has been granted funding to carry out work to finish the estate; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31154/11]
View answerIt is presumed the reference is to the Unfinished Housing Developments Safety Initiative which made funds available to Local Authorities to remedy aspects of unfinished estates which posed a health and safety risk to members of the public and residents of estates. My Department has not made funds available to finish the construction of housing developments. An application for funds in respect of the Dun Ri estate in Bunratty, Co Clare to make safe those elements which are deemed a health and safety risk has been received from Clare County Council. The application has been referred back to Clare County Council for additional information to be supplied. On receipt of the data requested my Department will make an allocation based upon the complete application.
