Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Energy and Communications (Mr. Stagg)

I recently met representatives of the Dublin 2000 consortium to discuss their interest in property owned by Bord Gáis Éireann in the Dublin docklands. I explained to them that the disposal of property by Bord Gáis Éireann is a matter for the board in which I have no statutory function.
