To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will intervene and insist that Louth County Council, as a responsible party, that action is taken to remove the hebble dredge from the River Boyne in Drogheda following its original sinking in 2022; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As confirmed in previous responses to parliamentary questions, the vessel in question is located in the Port of Drogheda, which Port is owned and overseen by Louth County Council since 2017. As also previously advised, any queries regarding the projected dates of removal of the ship from the Port of Drogheda should be directed to Louth County Council, or to the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, as the parent Department for the county council.
