147 Mr. Higgins (Dublin West) asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the amount of land the Shannon Free Airport Development Company has available to dispose of in the Shannon area. [5703/99]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 146 and 147 together.
Shannon Development's role in relation to housing is confined to Shannon town. Its role in providing houses ended around 1980 and it is currently is involved in the provision of land only. It now has 100 acres available for this purpose.
