I understand that the issue referred to in the Question is in relation to Laois County Council informing certain quarry operators that as a public body and operating in compliance with the NRA Circular Letter 01/2006 issued by the National Roads Authority, the Council was requested to only source road building material from quarries which are compliant with planning legislation.

This is a matter for Laois County Council as a road authority, and comes within the policy remit of the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport.
