I thank the Minister of State for her reply although, as she acknowledged, it is not exactly what I wanted to hear. She clarified one particular issue, however, namely, that the report is still not with the Department, notwithstanding the assurances we received locally that it had been sent. Somewhere along the line, it seems to have fallen through the cracks.

The Minister of State's reply was disappointing in that it echoed, almost word for word, the response I received in February this year. The only substantive difference is the indication that the report is not with the Department. I will have to go back to Kerry County Council to try to discover the true story. It is claiming the report is with the Department. Somebody, it seems, is telling porkies.
