asked the Minister for Lands and Fisheries whether he has received an extensively signed memorial requesting that a grant be given for the purpose of providing safer harbourage for fishing boats at Portronan (County Donegal); and, if so, whether he will state what decision has been arrived at in regard to the matter.

I have received the memorial referred to by the Deputy. A quay and slip are at present being constructed by the Commissioners of Public Works at Portronan for the use of the fishermen. I am obtaining engineering advice as to the feasibility of constructing the additional works asked for in the memorial.
