I had a meeting with the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade on 22 June, along with relevant officials from my Department, to discuss this project. A minute was kept of the meeting. Officials from my Department also continue to engage with the local authority as this project is being developed and managed by the local authority.

The project has significant procurement, state aid, legal and match funding complexities and the Department’s aim is to ensure that this flagship development is delivered in line with legal requirements and in accordance with the Public Spending Code.
