Minister of State at the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government

I have approved the application from Donegal County Council in respect of proposed dredging at Magheraroarty Pier and re-use of the dredged material at nearby Dooey Strand. The draft licence is in the final stages of execution and I expect the sealed licence to issue soon.
