British-Irish Agreement (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Second Stage.

 

I would like to highlight a few of the key responsibilities and achievements of the North-South bodies. Waterways Ireland is the largest employer of the six bodies, with a total staff of 350 people. Based in Enniskillen and Scariff, County Clare, it manages the island's navigable inland waterways system and is charged with the development and renovation of our rivers and canals for recreational use. A major project to upgrade the Shannon-Erne waterway, enabling cruisers to travel all the way from the top of the Erne navigation to the Shannon Estuary, has been completed by Waterways Ireland.
