There has to be a sharing in some way, as Mr. Smyth will appreciate.

I asked this question of An Bord Pleanála given that a different Department deals with the granting of foreshore licences other than local authorities and the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government and An Bord Pleanála. Would the OPW have any role in looking at these separate licences for the foreshore? For example, is there a role for the OPW when a sewerage scheme is being proposed for a town or village?
