My Department owns, operates and maintains six designated State-owned Fishery Harbour Centres, located at Castletownbere, Dingle, Dunmore East, Howth, Killybegs and Ros An Mhíl under statute.

Procurement of the services referred to by the Deputy is an operational matter for the various harbour users in Killybegs and the services in question are procured directly by them from the relevant service providers.

Killybegs Fishery Harbour Centre, which is operated and maintained by my Department, was designated as a Fishery Harbour Centre (FHC) under Statutory Instrument No, 210 of 1969.

Its current boundary is defined in Statutory Instrument No. 235 of 1987 which includes a map showing the FHC area, a copy of which is at the link for the Deputy’s information.
