Amharc ar fhreagra264 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources if the local authority sought permission for its proposal to locate a new slipway in County Mayo; if there was an existing slipway at that location; if the local authority requires a foreshore licence for this work; if the proposed development is in keeping with the area; and if public consultation is necessary for the proposal. [13251/06]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 257 and 264 together.
The Department has not received an application from Mayo County Council for authorisation under the foreshore Acts for the development of a new slipway at the location in question, and understands from inquiries it has made of the county council that it has no proposals for such a development. I understand the county council is undertaking certain works of maintenance and repair to an existing slipway at the location concerned.
