Ms Ann Murphy:

I wish to make a point about the public consultation process. Last week I spoke to somebody living very close to the station in Great Island who did not know this was happening. Several people in our local area are only hearing about it now, and the deadline is 5 p.m. next Tuesday. We have found it extremely difficult to obtain information from EirGrid. We waited weeks for the stage one report. We also had to wait weeks for its constraints report, and eventually we received it this week. The consultation process is seriously flawed.
