Catherine Connolly (Galway West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

A monitoring committee has been set up. Is the Minister getting feedback on that? Is she aware of what was discussed on 20 February? Are they keeping the Minister up to speed about any difficulties that might be arising? The Minister is saying it will take four months to assess. I appreciate that. There is a clear deadline now – it is approximately four months. A contractor will be employed this year for Inis Oírr. Inis Meáin is further down the list in relation to the Caladh Mór. They are absolutely frustrated that it is going on so long and we have not reached stage three.
