Thomas Byrne

Question:

148. Deputy Thomas Byrne asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if he will proceed with a playground at a location (details supplied) for which planning permission was obtained some time ago. [14307/18]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform

There are no plans to proceed with the development of a playground at Oldbridge Estate, County Meath. While Planning Permission for a playground was granted in September 2011, it expired in November 2016. The development did not proceed due to a lack of funding resources at the time and a request for a financial contribution from local authority (Meath County Council) was declined.
