Amharc ar fhreagraIrish Water recently submitted supplementary information in respect of this application, following a request by my Department under section 13A(1) of the Foreshore Act 1933. The supplementary information received from Irish Water has been issued for public consultation, and the latest date for submissions is today, 30 April 2015.
