My Department is currently examining the legal status of the aquaculture licence application referred to by the Deputy having regard to the requirements of the applicable legislation concerning the matter of Public Notice.

In the circumstances, as the application is under consideration as part of a statutory process it would not be appropriate for me to comment further on the case at this time.
