Vol. 253 No. 11

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Manhole Repairs.

112.

asked the Minister for Local Government if the responsibility for repairing manholes, which are in a dangerous condition and which are sited in public laneways, lies with the relevant local authority.

The question posed by the Deputy has complex legal implications because, for example, of the variety of statutory undertakers with authority to lay pipes, et cetera, under public roads and it would not be possible to give a direct answer to it. If the Deputy has a particular case in mind I would suggest that he should ask the appropriate local authority to investigate it.
