249. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine whether the claimed separation of duties in his Department between regulation and development was breached in the case of his decision not to revoke the aquaculture licence held by a company (details supplied) for its Lough Altan site, in view of the reasons for the decision set out on his Department's website.

The case referred to by the Deputy was considered by my Department in accordance with the provisions of the 1997 Fisheries (Amendment) Act and related national and EU legislation.

I am satisfied that the decision in this case is appropriate having regard to all the issues involved.
