My Department's Engineering Division is aware of and continues to monitor the condition of the harbour at Cape Clear.

A number of options are currently being examined to determine the optimum intervention strategy for the harbour. In addition I have this year allocated €30,000 under the 2010 Fishery Harbours and Coastal Infrastructural Development Programme for design works associated with the bull-nose at Cape Clear Harbour.
