I ask the question because I have seen a scenario where the fisheries board objected to planning permission for a school and took it all the way to An Bord Pleanála even though the school gave a commitment to the fisheries board. I reckon that delay has cost €2 million to the project. Is there a policy for engaging on environmental issues with schools and local authorities where the fisheries board has a concern?
