Ceist:

53 Mr. Rabbitte asked the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation if the capacity of the proposed car parks for the Stadium-Campus Ireland project has been reduced by 60% over the figure suggested in the original feasibility study; the implications for the logistics of getting people to and from the area; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The provision of appropriate car parking at Sports Campus Ireland is a matter for Campus and Stadium Ireland Development Limited, the preferred bidders for the project and their advisers, subject to planning approval and to the overall agreement of the Government as to the total Exchequer funding to be provided for this project.
