315. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence if a military risk analysis has been undertaken in relation to the legacy dumping of nuclear waste in the State’s south-west waters; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7269/22]

The matter of nuclear waste being dumped at sea comes under the remit of my colleague, the Minister for Environment, Climate and Communications.
The Defence Forces therefore do not have responsibility for undertaking a risk assessment of legacy issues associated with this matter.
