‹ Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - River Drainage. Overall Shannon authority
Summary
Naughten proposed an authority to coordinate the many bodies with interests in the Shannon. The Minister said he was prepared to consider it.
Just one last question. In view of the number of interests involved in the Shannon, such as OPW, the ESB, the Inland Fisheries, Bord na Móna, and all the other bodies which have a vested interest in the Shannon, will the Minister agree that there should be an overall Shannon authority to control the River Shannon over the next two decades?
