Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 30 June 2015
684. Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if the Dún Laoghaire Cruise Stakeholders Group is set up as a company under the Companies Acts; if he has consented to Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company contributing an initial €750,000, in addition to consenting to the company being a party to a loan application for €7.9 million to the European Investment Bank; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25929/15]
View answerThe Dún Laoghaire Cruise Stakeholders Group is made up of Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company, Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council and the Dún Laoghaire Rathdown Business Improvement District Company. I am not aware of the Group's status under Company law: that is a matter for the Group.
Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company has not applied for Ministerial consent in respect of the Cruise Stakeholders Group and, from the information available to me, its involvement in the Group to date does not require any such consent.
