Dear Mr. Finnerty

I have read your letter with great interest regarding your concern about preserving the old Celtic places in the eastern region of Galway as well as the alleged raw sewage discharges in the river in New Inn village. I understand your anxiety for the environment in which we are living, especially since it is taking place so close to your home.

As your concerns are of both general and individual character aiming at the environmental protection, submitting a Petition is the appropriate action. It is for the European Parliament to declare your petition admissible and the European Commission will provide information in the matter. As you are probably aware of both the European Parliament and the European Commission receives a large number of petitions/complaints regarding various topics from European citizens. An answer to your petition will be given in due course.

Best regards,

Margot WALLSTRÖM
