Achievement
• Good selection & management to keep going in crisis. Largest leisure project in Ireland.
• Compare Dublin Docklands Authority. €200+m taxpayers money, nothing achieved later on.
• Greystones. Virtually no taxpayers money, new harbour built as Town ‘Icon’ and central feature.
• Recognition. World Conference, International Magazines, Afloat.
• Delays Happen. DART campaign took 22 years.
