The dunes at Burrow Beach, Burrow Road, Sutton, Co. Dublin are owned by Fingal County Council and responsibility for their maintenance and development is a matter for the Local Authority in the first instance. However, I am pleased to announce that under my Department's 2008 Coastal Protection Programme, grant aid of €50,000 has been allocated towards the protection of the Dunes at Burrow Beach. All applications were decided based on Exchequer funding and overall national priorities.
