Proposed Changes to River Shannon, Grand and Royal Canals and River Barrow Navigation By-laws: Discussion

Mr. ?anna Rowe:

There are two separate permits. One permit is for use of the navigations, which is increasing from €126 to €200. The second permit is a specific permit for houseboats that will be attached to a location. There are five different types of location. There are urban locations such as Dublin, there are suburban serviced and suburban unserviced sites and there are rural serviced and rural unserviced sites.
