The information requested by the Deputy is set out in my reply to Dáil Question 418 of the 19th December 2013.  The only update since then is that Bantry Bay Harbour Commissioners were amalgamated into Cork Port Company on 1st January 2014.

It is not possible to quantify the savings from rationalisation until the detailed arrangements in respect of each implementation have been bedded in and assessed by the agencies in question.
