In August 2012, my Department approved funding totalling €91,753.40 to cover the cost of addressing immediate public safety concerns in respect of this development. It is now clear that, building on existing analysis, a comprehensive assessment and plan is required, and is being evolved by the local authority, to determine the cause or causes of the difficulties with this development and potential routes to their resolution. While this is primarily a matter for the local authority working with local residents and property owners, I have now made a provisional allocation of up to a further €200,000 to Longford County Council to contribute to the costs of any public safety remedial works arising from the assessment and plan referred to above.
