The Tánaiste is aware of the Tarbert land bank in north Kerry. He is also probably aware of the high unemployment in the area.

Which land bank?

The Tarbert land bank. There is huge potential regarding this facility, if it were ever utilised for the benefit of the people of north Kerry, west Limerick and nationally. My understanding is that currently a judicial review is going through the courts regarding the tendering process for use of the land bank. Will the Tánaiste ensure that process will be open and transparent? Will he ensure all organisations that tender for it are accommodated equally in the process?

If an issue is being determined in the courts there is very little I can say about it. I would need to be careful. If there is a specific issue the Deputy would like to raise with me in more detail, perhaps he could put it in writing and I will try to get an answer for him.
