View answerMy Department approved funding in February 2010 for a programme of works including the refurbishment of some tenanted dwellings, the demolition of a number of existing units and the provision of a small number of new units at Ballylynch, Carrick-on-Suir. My Department understands that a receiver was appointed to the construction company carrying out the works in April 2012. The local authority is currently in the process of selecting a new contractor to complete the works. The procurement of a replacement contractor is a matter for the contracting authority, in this case Carrick-on-Suir Town Council.
