The pier at Brandon is the property of Kerry County Council and responsibility for its repair and upkeep rests with the Local Authority in the first instance. Kerry County Council did not submit any application for funding in respect of the pier at Brandon under the 2009 Fishery Harbours and Coastal Infrastructure Development Programme. Any application by Kerry County Council for funding under the programme in future years will be considered on the basis of Exchequer allocation and overall national priorities.
