Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: I asked the question and not the Chairman so Dr. Beamish should look at me. It is basic manners to look at the person who asked the question.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: With all due respect to Dr. Beamish, he has not answered my question. I assume his answer to my question is "No". I assume that he does believe there is a conflict of interest and there should be two separate offices.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: Any publication could circulate the notice in the vicinity.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: The Garda Reviewis circulated in Inishowen, for God's sake. Publishing in two or three newspapers will ensure that the notice is read by somebody who lives in the community and will be affected by the decision. I have made that basic point before yet it still has not been accepted by the Department. In recent weeks I received a letter that still says that the Donegal Democratis a newspaper...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: I fully support what Deputy McConalogue has said. Obviously the recommendations are listed, as Dr. Beamish has said. Will he supply the committee with a response to each recommendation and a timeline for implementation or, if they cannot be done in an acceptable timeframe, the reasons for that? If he says there are difficulties, that is fair enough. He needs to let us know the difficulties.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: I want to ask a supplementary question. I have reviewed the transcript of the committee's February 2017 meeting with the witnesses, at which we also we dealt with the matter of Linsfort beach. Unfortunately, the issues that I raised a year ago - ensuring full public access to an application - have not changed as of recent weeks. I will read from the Fisheries (Amendment) Act 1997, with...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: I will quote from the transcript with respect to what Mr. Quinlan said at the last hearing. He said: "The Department cannot - I repeat cannot - depart from what is said in legislation because it is there to protect the public and the individual member of the public who has applied for an aquaculture licence." He clearly said that the Department cannot depart from what is said in...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Aquaculture Licensing Process: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (6 Feb 2018)

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn: The legislation clearly stipulates the applicant must name the location of the site. How can my question be interpreted as asking the Department to depart from the legislation? The legislation states the location must be named. What does the Department interpret that to be? Is it the exact location, such as the district electoral division, DED, the townland or the general bay? I am not...
