Offshore Islands

============================================================

Éamon Ó Cuív (FF), Galway West

Very briefly, can the Minister tell me exactly when we are going to get the contract signed for Inis Oírr? A detailed study was done with huge delay, and presumably quite considerable costs, by the National Maritime College of Ireland in Cork regarding Inis Meáin.
Will the Minister give an update on the outcome of that study and where we are in progressing piers in Inis Meáin. The Minister mentioned Machaire Rabhartaigh. Will she give an update on the position of that? Finally, I notice Roonagh pier is not mentioned. It is highly dangerous and needs major investment. It serves both Inisturk and Clare Island. Something urgently needs to be done there before someone loses their life.
