asked the President if control of the sluice gates at Belleek has, with the approval of the Government, been handed over for a period to a local authority in the Six-County area; if so, for what period is this outside control to continue, on what conditions has it been approved; what is the purpose of this experiment; if the property in question falls within the scope of Article 11 of the Constitution and if it is now being controlled and administered by the Oireachtas.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Control of Belleek Sluice Gates.
There are certain aspects of this matter which require further examination, and I would ask the Deputy to repeat his question on Wednesday next.
Can the President state whether or not it is a fact that the sluice gates have been handed over for some sort of temporary control?
I have given my answer.
What sort of work is to be done?
The Deputy will get his reply on Wednesday next if he has the ordinary courtesy to wait for it. I intend then to give a complete answer, not one that will be misrepresented.
You have not given a complete answer to any question to-day.
