Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 14 March 2013
74. Deputy Joe McHugh asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht with reference to an industrial estate in County Donegal, if his Department and Údarás na Gaeltachta will consider a proposal (details supplied); and if he will communicate directly with a person regarding this matter. [13499/13]
View answerÚdarás na Gaeltachta is a statutorily independent body and, accordingly, I have no function in relation to its day-to-day operations. As the proposal referred to involves property in the ownership of Údarás na Gaeltachta, the Deputy will understand that any decision in this regard would be entirely a matter for Údarás. I can say, however, that I understand that the matter in question is under consideration by Údarás na Gaeltachta and that officials from Údarás are available to meet with interested local development committees to discuss and consider any reasonable proposals.
