Other Questions: Commemorative Events (16 Jul 2014)

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: ...with Dublin City Council and planners to ensure the rest of the site would be developed sensitively.

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: National Monuments (18 Sep 2013)

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: Okay, if the Minister is prohibited from doing so under the legislation, can he call on somebody else to engage, whether it be the local authority or some other body, to establish whether NAMA will make the funding available for the development to happen?

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: National Monuments (18 Sep 2013)

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: I agree with the point being made by Deputy McLellan. At issue, among other matters, is the fact that the land is in the ownership or control of NAMA.

If he cannot engage directly himself - I am not sure why he cannot do so-----
