Ms Teresa Morrissey:

We sat down with the Department about two years ago and looked at where those 30 recommendations were.

Their implementation, and the timeline for the implementation of the 30 recommendations, was always unclear. We are eight years on from the publication of the report in 2017. To this day, there is nothing we would disagree with in the licensing recommendations of 2017. Everything we need to do is in there, including legislative reform and looking at having a single aquaculture Act that deals with all of the legislative amendments and primary and secondary legislation, as Mr. O'Sullivan referred to. They are all in there. Some of them have been progressed and some of them have been completed. I suppose it depends on how you view completion and progression. We would disagree that some have been completed or progressing. Some have not been touched at all, for example, dealing with a review of the legislation from top to bottom and looking at implementing an aquaculture Act. I could not give a number on how many have been completed and how many have not.
