[33284/12]

Written answers

Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Deputy Simon Coveney)

My reply to the previous Parliamentary Question of 10th May 2012 submitted by the Deputy sets out the position in relation to the studies carried out on the Bulls Nose at Cape Clear.

The final report from the consultants engaged on this project is regrettably not yet to hand. On receipt of their report I will be in a position to make an informed decision in relation to the proposed works at Cape Clear.
