Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Waterways Ireland: Discussion.
3:00 pm
Mr. Éanna Rowe:
We started this process over 18 months ago. Our first iteration of the by-laws went through a lengthy process of stakeholder engagement and consultation. It took us the guts of eight weeks, or maybe longer, to come back with the second phase, so it will take us a period of weeks to robustly review, in the context of the ask from our parent Department, taking in that broader perspective, especially around inflationary pressures and indeed the pressures in the leisure and tourism sector. It is going to take us some time to review those fees again but I hope that early in the autumn, we will have that work completed and will be able to submit those and publish them.
