Question 101: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if the remediation done by Dublin City Council in respect of Ballymun Regeneration extended to the public spaces; if sewers; water mains and other utilities were impacted; if so, the action he will take in respect of other estates with proven pyrite in respect of the public spaces that may ultimately become the charge of local authorities; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Funding provided by my Department to Ballymun Regeneration Limited (BRL) related to pyrite remediation works on houses and apartments. I understand it may have been necessary in some instances to excavate footpaths and access areas and to remove services connections temporarily in order to undertake the necessary remediation works. My Department is not aware of any pyrite-related problems with regard to infrastructure or public spaces.
