Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

This Government statement, an unusual one at that, was issued arising from a statement made by the Dublin city manager to an Oireachtas committee last week. At the committee he stated the contract signed by Dublin City Council for the construction of the incinerator in Ringsend was in compliance with Government policy. The statement issued yesterday by the Government was to clarify this. As I read the statement, it does no such thing. First, it has no reference to the incinerator-----
