My Department’s records indicate that two applications have been received for Aquaculture Licences from the person referred to by the Deputy. The first application was received in November 2016 but it was subsequently returned to the applicant as it was incomplete. The completed application form and the necessary supporting documentation were returned to my Department in June 2017 and this application is being processed in the normal way.

My Department received a further application for an Aquaculture Licence from the same applicant in June 2017. During the verification process, my Department discovered an error of a technical nature with this application. This has been communicated to the applicant and a response is awaited.
