The application to carry out pier enhancement works at Rosses Point which will involve the extension to the slipway and remedial works to the existing slipway, provision of a floating pontoon and access gangway and mooring/anchoring arrangements at the pier from Sligo County Council was approved in principle by me on 8 December 2016.

The Chief State Solicitor’s Office has now been requested to prepare the requisite legal documentation.
