John Perry (Sligo-Leitrim, Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister of State for the clarification because there was major uncertainty among the people of Ros a'Mhíl. There was ambiguity among the key partners in the fishery harbour regarding the direction and timescale of the development. They sought clarity on the timsecale and funding, not promises. The original cost of the development was estimated at €29 million, which was agreed by the Department and designs and costings were produced for the provision of dedicated ferry berths and a deep water pier 200 metres long with a minimum depth of 8 metres. Does the Minister of State agree to that?
