Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The system is not a problem. The system can function and will function. I have answered the question about liability. If there is a problem with any fish farm in this country, the operator of that project will need to have liability in place. That will be part of the usual licensing application and delivery process. The same will apply to the project that is under consideration if it gets the go-ahead. That is a big "if" because many considerations must be studied before any decision is made on the Galway Bay project.
