Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government Meets DCCG

Posted on February 15, 2008 | Filed Under Environment, Events

A Delegation from the  Dorrins and Cummeen Strand Conservation Group
have met with Mr John Gormley, TD and Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local
Government.  The meeting took place on Monday evening 11th February
while Minister Gormley was visiting the area.

During the meeting the DCCG delegation outlined in detail to the Minister their concerns for the conservation of Dorrins and Cummeen Strand arising out of the threat posed by the proposal to build an extension to the runway of Sligo Airport on the public beach at
Dorrins Strand.

Minister Gormley engaged constructively with the delegation, asking many pertinent questions demonstrating a clear understanding of the special status of this environmentally sensitive area.

At the end of the meeting the DCCG delegation were pleased with the Minister’s response and are confident that Minister goes away with a clear understanding of the issues and the threat to local environment posed by the Airport project.

We would like to acknowledge local Green Party representative Mr Brian Scanlon who organised the meeting with Minister Gormley for us.
