Financial Statements 2023: Inland Fisheries Ireland
Special Report No. 118 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Governance, internal control and value for money issues in Inland Fisheries Ireland

2:00 am

Mr. Barry Fox:

We have quite a narrow role in regards to water quality enforcement, and we are working with the Department to expand that. We have put a number of recommendations to the Department as to what we would like to progress. The Cathaoirleach is right. To answer his question, there is an opportunity for us to be more involved. The monitoring and classification of water bodies, however, will remain a matter for the EPA.
