Question 858: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if it is appropriate and safe to build 162 apartments above the Dublin Port tunnel while it is being constructed; if all planning and traffic count procedures were adhered to at the proposed apartment development (details supplied) in Dublin 9; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government is generally precluded from exercising any power or control regarding any individual matter with which a planning authority or An Bord Pleanála is or may be concerned under section 30 of the Planning and Development Act 2000. It would not therefore be appropriate for me to comment on an individual case. It is a matter for the relevant planning authority to determine if planning procedures were complied with, and whether the location of a particular development is appropriate in all circumstances.
