During the week an incident occurred on Lough Derg. Maritime tourism and activities are becoming more popular and the country has opportunities to exploit them and maximise their benefits for the economy. This will place increased demand on rescue resources. Do we have a long-term plan which involves all of the stakeholders? Do we have a programme to develop this? It is great to see an increase in activities and the potential which exists and we should take advantage of it.
