As previously confirmed to the Deputy, the City Council's request for access to lands has been facilitated. As part of this arrangement, the Defence Forces will continue to require access to lands for the deployment of trucks which enables water based training activities to take place. As these activities related to ongoing training and operational matters, the Deputy will appreciate that it would not be appropriate to comment further.

The Deputy can be assured that my Department is working with the City Council in order to facilitate the development of this park.
