My Department received an application in August 2020 from Waterford City and County Council (the Head Lessee) seeking approval to extend the term of an existing consented sub-lease granted to Passage East Ferry Company up until 25 May 2034. The sub-lease, for a slipway and mooring, was granted originally to allow the ferry company to operate from Passage East to Ballyhack, Co. Wexford.

This Application is at an advanced stage of the process with the Chief State Solicitor's Office (CSSO).  Officials from my Department have been in contact with the Head Lessee to address clarifications sought from the CSSO and they are available to answer any questions the Lessee may have.
