Formal record of notification
Members questioned why Dublin Corporation was notified by telephone, whether this was normal practice, and whether written confirmation followed. Wyse said the Commissioners of Public Works had made the call, no writing followed, and the Corporation was satisfied; Keating disputed that claim.
Arising from the Minister of State's reply, am I to take it that the Government informed Dublin Corporation by telephone only?

We considered that this was within our rights because we had long discussions. I fail to understand why we are talking about one day's notice when this matter has been going on since 1968.

I want to ascertain why this unusual method of informing a local authority was used in this case.

I want the Minister of State to tell me if the telephone conversation was subsequently followed by a written communication.

Does this mean that Dublin Corporation do not have any formal record other than the telephone conversation?

I am asking if Dublin Corporation have any formal communication other than the telephone call? Is that the correct position at the moment?
