On 13 January 2016, the Maritime Jurisdiction (Straight Baseline) Order was made from Malin Head to Carnsore Point, all along the west and south coasts, with the formalisation of thevoisinageagreement through the passage of all Stages of the Sea-Fisheries (Amendment) Bill 2017 in the past few weeks. I have been told that a statutory instrument from the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade cut straight baselines from Carnsore Point right up beyond Dundalk. I cannot find the instrument. I was told by the Minister yesterday that Deputy Simon Coveney signed the statutory instrument, yet there is no record of it. Could I please be forwarded the instrument and a copy of the baseline?
