I have no role or function in regard to planning matters which are the responsibility of An Bord Pleanála and the local authorities. Neither have I a role in the planning of electricity infrastructure which is a day-to-day operational matter for the commercial State companies, EirGrid and ESB. My Department has asked ESB to forward to the Department a copy of the permission referred to by the Deputy. ESB advises that the information dating back to the 1980s is located in the archives of the company.
