Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 26 March 2019
1127. Deputy James Lawless asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if a project to lay a pipeline that would supply fuel to Dublin Airport will be considered (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13903/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraI understand that there is a proposal from a private sector entity to construct a fuel pipeline to supply aviation fuel to companies at Dublin Airport. This is a commercial matter for that private entity which would require consents from the landowners, roads authorities and planning authorities. While the possibility of making legislative provision to advance the implementation of this proposal has been raised, I am not convinced of the case for such legislative change at the present time, prior to the above work being completed.
