Castletownshend foreshore licences
Margaret Murphy O'Mahony asked that local concerns in Castletownshend be taken into account before foreshore and aquaculture licence decisions. The Minister of State said the decision was imminent and would consider all planning issues.
My question is for the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Deputy Creed, and the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government, Deputy Murphy, but maybe the Minister of State at the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government, Deputy English, might be able to answer it. Will the concerns, of which there are many, of the local people in Castletownshend be taken into account when a decision is being made on the recent applications for foreshore and aquaculture licences in Castletownshend harbour?

That is for decision this week or next week, so I cannot get involved in the decision. All issues raised on the planning side will be dealt with in the decisions.

The decisions must take into account the concerns of the people there.
