Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I heard Deputy Broughan's remarks very clearly. There is no legislation promised in respect of an investigation into the activities of Dublin City Council. This is a matter which I am sure the councillors and representatives of the people will raise very adequately with the city council members and will follow through on what is a sensitive issue raised by Deputy Broughan yesterday and to which the Minister of State, Deputy Jan O'Sullivan, replied.

On the Deputy's question on the foreshore and marine area development Bill, the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, Deputy Hogan, has sorted out a great deal of the complexities dealing with foreshore licences. This Bill is due later this year and work is advancing on it. I cannot give the Deputy an exact date but it is due for later this year.
