The position is that Donegal County Council has recently submitted a proposal for my Department's consideration Department in respect of funding 75% of the cost of improvements to the pier at Inis Bó Finne.

The proposal will be evaluated by my Department in the light of existing commitments and future priorities and in the context of monies available for island development in the future.
