Seanad: Harbours (Amendment) Bill 2008: Committee Stage (Resumed) (6 Nov 2008) See 6 other results from this debate

Ned O'Sullivan: I am slow to intervene because it is clear Senator O'Donovan will have a great deal more to say on this in the coming days and possibly weeks. I want to refer to the situation in Fenit for fear that our silence in that respect indicates that we are happy in Kerry. I share the views of Senator O'Donovan in all he has said in regard to Bantry, particularly with regard to prior consultation....

Ned O'Sullivan: The Acting Chairman, Senator Coghlan, is intimately acquainted with Fenit and is aware that its future will be as a leisure-fishing port. There is an important industry operating there which, I am sure, is close to the Acting Chairman's heart. Other than that, however, the main activities carried out there are by those who fish for a living and those involved in tourism angling. In recent...

Harbours (Amendment) Bill 2008 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (14 May 2009)

Martin Ferris: ...Bill and whose livelihoods depend on the facilities that are the subject of the Bill have claimed that there was not adequate consultation. That was certainly the case according to the people of Fenit who claim that they were not consulted but merely told what the changes would mean for them. They were given no opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to any alleged consultation...

Jimmy Deenihan: In recent years, Fenit Harbour has been largely neglected, especially in comparison with the other west coast ports of Killybegs or Castletownberehaven. A grant received in 2004 was welcome but totally inadequate relative to the vast level of safety and structural repairs needed to bring Fenit up to an acceptable standard and make it competitive. Costings of more than €6 million for work to...

Ned O'Sullivan: I specifically want to refer to the Government amendments. Like my colleague, Senator O'Donovan, I greatly welcome them and there was an audible sigh of relief in Fenit and Tralee this morning when it became clear that the Government had listened to the debate here, to Senator O'Donovan and indeed our colleagues on the other side of the House. It was a very useful debate and while there is...

Noel Ahern: The point I am making is that there is a difference due to the significant amount of commercial traffic from Liebherr in Killarney to Fenit. That company is very attached to Fenit because it suits its operation. If Fenit was only about tourism and angling, we would not be talking about putting it under the control of the Shannon-Foynes Port Company because it would be transferred to Kerry...

Ned O'Sullivan: ...of which have been well documented. I lived through the changes and, overall, it was a good example of a merger. I am not so sanguine about the proposed merger of Shannon Foynes Port Company with Fenit Harbour. This is not at all popular in County Kerry. I was speaking to the chairman of the board, Councillor John Wall, this morning and he explained there was resistance across the board...

Jimmy Deenihan: Unfortunately, I was not in a position to make a contribution to the Second Stage debate on the Bill. I have an interest in Fenit Harbour, which is located in my constituency. I am glad the Minister, more or less, reversed his original intention in respect of amalgamating it with Foynes Harbour. The latter would not be appropriate and it would be better if Fenit Harbour Commissioners were...
