The Commissioners of Irish Lights (CIL) is the General Lighthouse Authority for all of Ireland, its adjacent seas and islands. CIL carry out the obligations of the Irish Government in relation to the provision of Aids to Navigation around the coast. The Colt Rock insignia was removed by CIL during their upgrading works on the Colt Rock beacon at Castletownbere Fishery Harbour Centre. Any decision regarding the re-instatement of the insignia is a matter for the Commissioners of Irish Lights.
