Development work at Kilmore Quay is proposed in my Department's fishery harbour development programme, which followed a detailed study of the infrastructural needs of the fishing industry.
The nature and extent of any work to be carried out at Kilmore Quay is dependent upon the results of a site investigation which will be undertaken as soon as possible.
