asked the Minister for the Marine if he has any plans for the development of a marina in Dunbur, County Wicklow.

I do not have any plans for the development of a marina at Dunbur, County Wicklow.

An application was made some years ago to the then Department of Communications for funding in respect of a marina at Dunbur; as no funds were available, the project did not proceed. This remains the case.

Should that project be reviewed or a new one be proposed, I would be happy to facilitate it in every way which would not involve a call on Exchequer funds.
