188. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will engage with the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform and ask officials from his Department and the Office of Public Works to re-engage with a person (details supplied) to discuss a safe and fair management system for the water courses that run through his farm land from all the hills in the surrounding townlands into the sea at the adjoining public beach.

I am advised that the person named is a participant in the Agri-Climate, Rural, Environment Scheme (ACRES). As a participant of the Scheme it is open to them to engage with their ACRES approved agricultural advisor and the local ACRES Co-operation Project Team (CP Team), to address issues found on the participant’s holding. This may include the management of water courses, through the careful application of the appropriate Non-productive Investments (NPIs), which will shortly become available. In addition to this, the Scheme plans to have larger-scale Landscape Actions, which may be employed to address wider landscape issues that affect individual farms.

It is unclear what the specific issues are affecting the person named and I suggest contacting the local Office of Public Works as a first step in addressing these matters.
