The proposal referred to by the Deputy is a proposal of the European Commission. However, my and my Department's understanding is that it refers to Shannon Foynes Port which would be consistent with the revised version of the maps of the Core and Comprehensive Networks published under the associated proposal for a TENT Regulation.
