Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 4 March 2015
206. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will review the boundary of Drogheda, County Louth, as proposed by the Drogheda Chamber of Commerce (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9484/15]
View answerThe Borough District of Drogheda, which was determined by statutory order on 31 January 2014 on the basis of the recommendations contained in the Local Electoral Area Boundary Committee Report 2013, encompasses a larger area than that of the former Drogheda Borough Council and has a population of almost 42,000. I am keeping the matter under review in the context of the wider local government reform programme.
