Written answers

My Department has received correspondence relating to a number of allegations regarding certain matters in County Wicklow. An assessment and analysis have been carried out of the various allegations raised.

Some of the matters raised in the correspondence have been the subject of previous reviews or investigative processes by a person with suitable expertise or an appropriate statutory body external to Wicklow County Council. In addition, some of the associated cases have been the subject of statutory processes in relation to certain planning decisions.

A final decision on the appropriate action to be taken by my Department will be made in due course.
