In this case, there was not one. The issue basically was that the fishery board felt the sewage treatment facility in a small local community was not adequate for the school. The old school was already connected to the system. The school gave an undertaking that it would not increase the number of pupils but the fisheries board took it all the way to An Bord Pleanála and delayed the project for more than 18 months. Is there a policy in the fisheries board for dealing with issues such as this?
