The carrying out of stock management operations on Lough Corrib SAC along with the other water bodies throughout the country are day to day operational matters for Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) in which neither I nor my Department have any function. National policy and legislation relating to inland fisheries matters are within my remit, in consultation with IFI.

In regard to operational matters such as stock management, IFI has established a specific email address for queries from Oireachtas members so that such queries can be addressed promptly, in line with IFI's objective to deliver services to the highest standards. The email address is oireachtas@fisheriesireland.ie.
