My Department has contacted the applicants for the foreshore licence concerned to confirm that no work is taking place on the foreshore prior to a licence issuing.

The applicants have advised that they are installing a manhole on a public road outside of the foreshore in Portrane. This work is being carried out under a Road Opening Licence permission from Fingal County Council (Ref 2019DF0515).
