Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 10 February 2015
584. Deputy Emmet Stagg asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the reason South Dublin County Council has not responded to correspondence (details supplied) regarding the provision of an underpass in Dublin 20. [5893/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe reply to correspondence is the responsibility of the local authority concerned and I have no function in relation to this particular matter. Responsibility for road matters rests with the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport.
The Local Government Act 2001 (Section 237A) Regulations 2003 provide, inter alia, that it shall be an objective of a local authority to seek to deal with requests for access to information by a parliamentary representative as expeditiously as may be and in accordance with a proper level of customer service. Having regard to this and any other relevant matters, it is the responsibility of each local authority to keep under review their own systems and procedures.
