Dinny McGinley (Donegal South West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Of course the OPW will have a pivotal role, although I am saying that before the recommendations are made. There is also the ESB, which controls a great deal of the area around Ardnacrusha, as the Deputy knows well. I come from west of the Shannon and do not live by its banks but I know some of the difficulties and complexities involved. The matter is being pursued actively in the Department and I hope there will be recommendations in the not too distant future.
