I propose to take Questions Nos. 285, 289 and 290 together.

I refer the Deputy to Dáil Question Nos: 58,331,324 and 332 of  27 March 2013 and Priority Question No 4. 23305/13 for answer today  which set out the actions which the Government and myself as Minister are taking in relation to the issues raised by the Deputy.  Both I and my Department meet regularly with stakeholders in this context.
