Dublin Docklands Development Authority: Annual Report and Financial Statements (26 Mar 2015) John Deasy: Sorry, but I am going to go back to the Jeanie Johnston. Something is niggling at me about the statement Mr. Crawley made last week when he said that in previous years he did not have the resources to provide the maintenance and repairs for the Jeanie Johnston.

Dublin Docklands Development Authority: Annual Report and Financial Statements (26 Mar 2015) John Deasy: Mr. Clegg has been involved in detailed talks with Dublin City Council about this and its plan for the river.
