Mr. David McGarry:

I understand that good progress is being made on the rail link. I understand that details of the plan for Foynes island are set out in the master plan up to 2041. It is likely to become part of the future and to play a more prominent role in the services the port can provide. I am new to this role and I do not have all the detailed knowledge of the situation as I am just building my knowledge at this stage. Foynes island would play a key role in facilitating large ships which need deeper water. I have no details as to whether it is owned or not owned by the company.
