Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism (Mr. O’Donoghue)

On 27 April 2006, I approved the contract documents submitted by Kilkenny County Council in respect of a replacement swimming pool in Kilkenny. This allowed the Council to go to tender for the work proposed.

Tender details were submitted to my Department this week and are now being examined by the Department and the Department's technical advisers, the Office of Public Works.
