If your Department, under Inland Fisheries Ireland, pursues a complaint with the EPA about the condition of a particular river, then surely one could expect the EPA to take an action. If the local authorities, or anybody else, were found to be at fault and no action was taken, then surely it would fall back to Inland Fisheries to ask why no action was taken. Can you tell this committee, in regard to Inland Fisheries Ireland, how many of these actions were taken, how many are pending, how many were successful and how many are ongoing - in the sense that the local authorities do not care and do not respond?
