I met with representatives of snap net fishermen who operate on the River Suir in Carrick-on Suir on 3 June.

The fishermen's representatives explained to me their concerns in relation to the location of the outfall for the Carrick-on Suir waste water treatment plant and the disruption that they consider it will cause to their operations. I have noted the issues and concerns that were raised at the meeting and will have the points that were put to me considered carefully in conjunction with the report on the matter that has been prepared by the Department's engineering division.
