The pier in question is not in the ownership of my Department but is owned by Galway County Council and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.

I understand that officials from Galway County Council have been in correspondence with officials in my Department requesting participation on a committee to examine the development of the pier. My officials have informed the local authority that they will participate on this committee.
