129. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 641, when a determination will be made in respect of the foreshore licence application from Louth County Council relating to the proposed maintenance dredging at Annagassan Harbour; if he will consider compensation for the fishermen concerned including the repayment of harbour dues that have been paid even though the fishermen have not had use of the harbour; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

A Foreshore Licence under Section 3 of the 1933 Foreshore Act has been approved by me in respect of periodic maintenance dredging works at Annagassan Harbour, Castlebellingham, Co Louth. The Licence in question will issue to Louth County Council as a priority. As Annagassan Harbour functions under the authority of Louth County Council issues such as Harbour dues are a matter for the Council.
