View answerThe Deputy is referring to the proposed introduction of pay parking within the Fishery Harbour Centre at Howth.
I am reviewing all aspects of the matter at present. I can assure the Deputy that I will take account of all aspects of this matter - the views of the various harbour users, the potential return on the State’s investment, the possible impact on the harbour businesses and recreational users, the impact on the local economy and local jobs, and the impact on overall traffic management within the Fishery Harbour - in coming to a decision.
