Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 September 2014
199. Deputy John McGuinness asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the reasons for the delay in rebuilding and repairing the boundary wall along of Kilkenny Castle along the canal walk; the timeframe for the work and the temporary fence to be removed; and if he will expedite the matter. [35252/14]
View answerI am advised by the Commissioner of Public Works that an area of boundary wall close to John's bridge has been fully repaired with all hoarding now removed. At a second location, concerns have arisen regarding the safety of the embankment following storm damage to trees along a section of the Canal Walk, and this area is being closely monitored. Further work is required in including repairs to the boundary wall and this will be completed as soon as possible.
