207. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will confirm that his Department had discussions in June 2013 with Fingal County Council regarding the installation of a temporary tourist office-kiosk on a site in the Howth Fishery Harbour Centre; if the terms of a lease for this site were agreed; the reason this lease is still not completed by his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

My Department agreed in principle with Fingal County Council to their request for a site to locate a tourist information kiosk within the confines of the Fishery Harbour Centre in Howth and engaged with the Council in relation to the project last June.

Discussions continued and centred on finalising and putting in place all the necessary legal and administrative aspects in relation to the project.

The legal documentation required to give effect to this project has been sent by my Department to Fingal County Council and their response is awaited before final arrangements for the installation of the kiosk can be made.
