An application from Drogheda Harbour Commissioners for grant assistance for quay reconstruction works at Ballast and Welshman's Quays has been under consideration by my Department. However, it has not been possible in the current economic circumstances to make specific provision in the Public Capital Programme for this project in 1987.
