Paul Coghlan (Fine Gael)

As the Minister of State will appreciate, I am aware of those designations but this land is already located in a semi-built up area. The park is divided by the road at this point. With all due respect, it is different to the park land on the other side of the road. Moreover, the land was previously offered for this purpose and approval was given for it. I appeal to the Minister of State to use his good offices with his colleague, the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, Deputy Roche, to meet the requests of locals in the interests of all.
