As the Deputy is aware, in 2017 my Department undertook a public consultation process whereby it sought submissions from interested parties in relation to the future use of airstrips and surrounding sites in the ownership of the Department on Inishbofin and in Cleggan, County Galway. A large number of submissions were received and these are currently being reviewed by my Department. I expect that my officials will conclude its deliberations in a timely manner upon which a decision will be made as to the future use of the airstrips and surrounding sites.
