Cecilia Keaveney
Ceist:105 Cecilia Keaveney asked the Minister for Finance the position in relation to the decentralisation programme; and if he will make a statement on the matter particularly as it may pertain to Inishowen. [6023/03]
Written Answers - Decentralisation Programme.
The Government is committed to moving forward the progressive decentralisation of Government offices and agencies taking into account the national spatial strategy. As I have previously said on many occasions, there is a wide range of important issues that must be taken into consideration and it is not possible for me to state at this time when the Government will be in a position to take a decision on the issue of decentralisation.
However, all of the numerous submissions and cases made to my Department, including that received from and on behalf of Inishowen, will be given full consideration in these deliberations.
