Fergus O'Dowd (Louth, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

If the Deputy examines the report to which I refer, she will see that the public consultation process was advertised in the Irish Independent, the Wicklow People, the Wexford People, the Waterford News and Star and the Southern Star. In the advertisement interested parties were invited to read the environmental report and provide feedback and notice was given of the location and dates of meetings. For the Deputy's information, some five consultation meetings were held during the week commencing 18 July. There was also a walk-in informal process, etc.
