Michael Colreavy (Sligo-North Leitrim, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

I thank Deputy Wallace for putting down this important question. The starting point must be that none of us has a monopoly on wisdom in relation to hydraulic fracturing. Many of us are absolutely clear that it should not be allowed anywhere on the island of Ireland. It is very welcome that the Minister of State has sought an interim report. I ask that the report be made public and presented before the Oireachtas committee to allow its members to look at the whole scope of it. There continues to be serious public concern in relation to potential gaps in the scope of the research being carried out.
