There was a recent announcement by Bord Iascaigh Mhara of an intention to locate a fish farm with a capacity of 15,000 tonnes annually off the west of Ireland.

This will have a serious effect on local natural stocks of sea trout and wild salmon. When does the Taoiseach expect the inland fisheries (modernisation and consolidation) Bill to come before the Dáil? I hope the legislation will address the serious concerns among local anglers and fishermen about the proposed fish farm.
