I refer to the reply to Question Nos. 1372 -1375 of 30 January 2008.

My Department wrote to Meath County Council seeking a report on this matter including, inter alia, details of archaeological costs. A report has since been received from the County Manager indicating that the total projected cost of archaeology, including excavation and post-excavation work, amounts to €260,000.
