Dingle Fishery Harbour Centre is one of the six designated Fishery Harbour Centres which are owned, managed and maintained by my Department under Statute.

The sub-letting of the premises referred to by the Deputy is a matter for Fáilte Ireland. The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine does not have a role in the selection of sub-tenants.

This Department has been in recent communication with Fáilte Ireland and understands that a tendering process is to take place shortly.
