Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 April 2015
433. Deputy Finian McGrath asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he has any environmental or safety concerns regarding the proposed aviation fuel pipeline along the Clontarf Road and Copeland Avenue, Dublin 3, and Malahide Road, Dublin 5, in view of the concerns of local residents. [16681/15]
View answerI understand that planning applications have been made to Fingal County Council and Dublin City Council in respect of this proposed project. These applications will be considered under the Planning and Development Acts and Regulations, including the requirements for environmental impact assessment and appropriate assessment, where necessary.
The decision whether to grant permission is a matter for the planning authorities concerned, or An Bord Pleanála in the event of an appeal, and I have no role in relation to the matter.
