Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Fish Migration and Barriers to Migration: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Jim Casey:

The work is under way and is being updated constantly. Along with IFI, we have identified in the order of 814 barriers along OPW maintained channels at the moment. Just over 10% of those are potential barriers to fish migration. That is not a final figure and it is work in progress. It is being updated at the moment. The IFI barriers programme is part of that, and we are feeding into that. We will have more up-to-date and accurate information on that very shortly.
