Question 216: To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if his attention has been drawn to the fact that charges for handling freight in Rosslare Europort, County Wexford are substantially higher than other ports and that a company (details supplied) is threatening to move due to the costs; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Most of the country's ports are owned by the State, with ten port companies operating under the Harbours Act and Rosslare Europort, which is owned by Iarnród Éireann. As such, I have referred the matter to Iarnród Éireann for direct reply to the Deputy. If the Deputy has not received a reply within ten days addressing the concerns raised in his question, please advise my private office.
