Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources

As stated in my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 477 on 28 May 2013, matters in relation to the sale of premises are a day to day operational matter for the Board of Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) subject to Public Financial Procedures. Details as regards public tendering and the transaction referred to by the Deputy are included on files held by the Board and not the Department. In this regard, I have asked IFI to contact the Deputy directly to address her queries.
