646. Deputy Dessie Ellis asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will provide details of the publicly owned serviced and rezoned land in Ballymun; and the future plans for this land. [12900/14]
View answerThe regeneration programme at Ballymun has moved into its completion phase and my Department is working closely with the Ballymun Civic Alliance and Dublin City Council to ensure that this project is completed on time and in a manner that protects the substantial investment of public funds to date .
I understand that it is an objective of the current Dublin City Development Plan to prepare a Local Area Plan for Ballymun and that preparatory work has already commenced in this regard . When implemented, this plan will provide the statutory framework for the future development of the Ballymun lands, taking into account the physical, economic, social and environmental priorities and objectives outlined in the strategic documentation developed by Ballymun Regeneration Limited to date.
Detailed information with regard to the extent of all publicly owned and serviced lands in the Ballymun area is not available in my Department.
