I sought permission from the Ceann Comhairle's office to correct the record relating to information I gave on 8 November in responding to a Topical Issue matter rasied by Deputy Ryan regarding coastal erosion at Portrane, County Dublin. In my reply I referred to a foreshore application in hand in my Department. However, this application was related to the Burrow Beach, Baldoyle, County Dublin. There is no application under the foreshore Acts related to the area around the Burrow Road in Portrane. I apologise for any confusion this may have caused during the Dáil exchange.
