Vol. 394 No. 8

Written Answers. - County Donegal Estates.

Proinsias De Rossa

Ceist:

158 Proinsias De Rossa asked the Minister for Finance if the Office of Public Works will consider the proposal from the local committee for the establishment of a national park at Lough Eske and Ardnamona Estates in County Donegal; if he will intervene with Coillte Teoranta with a view to having the proposed sale of the castle at Lough Eske and Ardnamona withdrawn from sale pending consideration of the plan; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Lough Eske and Ardnamona Estates in County Donegal do not meet the criteria for the establishment of a national park. The Office of Public Works are, however, in communication with Coillte Teoranta with a view to acquiring the properties in order to establish a nature reserve.
