Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 July 2013
406. Deputy Seán Ó Fearghaíl asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the reason his Department has withdrawn a planning application for new visitor facilities at Mullaghmore in the Burren National Park; the amount that has already been spent on the project; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36471/13]
View answerMy Department took the recent decision to withdraw the planning application associated with the development of car-parking facilities at the Burren National Park as it is of the view that the proposal needs to be further considered in the context of the wider management of the Burren National Park and present Exchequer funding constraints. To date, €6,218 has been spent on the project.
