Committee on Public Petitions

Save Fermoy Weir: Discussion.

Mr. Kevin Morey:

I will address the earlier question about the process for European funding. Cork County Council has engaged with potential lenders about an indicative programme. We have given indications of the types of interventions that might be involved. These will be dictated by the standards of the banks, which will consider particular interventions and an initiative where we can demonstrate a benefit to the town in terms of growth. We have an indicative list but it does not have specifics locked in.
