My Department maintains frequent contact with the Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government in regard to environmental matters, including the provision of advice on matters where I, as Minister, am a statutory consultee.

This contact can and does include matters which are the subject of communications from members of the public which may relate to areas which are the responsibility of other Departments.
