Aindrias Moynihan (FF), Cork North-West

Works on the River Sullane have been planned for a number of years. There was an exhibition in the Abbey Hotel. I acknowledge that quite a bit of background work is being done, between surveys and reports. However, there is a struggle to get temporary works carried out in the area. The OPW has handed over the lead role to Cork County Council. What prompted that move? Tá an-chuid oibre déanta le fada an lá ag tabhairt le chéile tuairiscí agus go leor eile chun an plean seo a thabhairt chun cinn i gcomhair an tSuláin agus cosaint a thabhairt do phobal Bhaile Bhuirne. Is ábhar buartha é nach bhfuil aon rud le feiceáil fós ar an láthair, fiú obair shealadach. Tuigim go bhfuil an chomhairle contae ag tógáil róil cheannasaigh maidir leis an togra seo. An bhféadfadh leis an Aire Stáit soiléiriú dúinn cén fáth go bhfuil an OPW ag seasamh siar agus go bhfuil an chomhairle contae ag tógáil an ról ceannaireachta sin?
