The Great Blasket Island management plan sets out the proposals for the future of the island and covers the full range of issues involved, including those referred to by the Deputy. I will arrange for a copy of this document to be sent to the Deputy. Arrangements for the purchase of property on the island are in progress in consultation with the Chief State Solicitor's office.
