Vol. 379 No. 9

Written Answers. - Dún Laoghaire Harbour Marina Development.

83.

asked the Minister for the Marine if, in view of the sensitivity of the issue and the importance of Dún Laoghaire harbour, County Dublin, he will carry out an environmental impact assessment on the proposed marina development in the coal harbour to allay fears and concerns.

My Department, in conjunction with the Office of Public Works, have examined the question of the environmental impact of this proposal, in light of information available within these Departments, and also from the developers. I am satisfied, in view of this examination, that the proposed development will, overall, enhance the harbour and its environs; and that adequate provisions will be made in the lease to ensure that strict environmental conditions will be met.
