My Department has been informed by Inland Fisheries Ireland that the Governance Review which the Section 18(5) appointees have been tasked with is ongoing and nearing completion. It is intended that a report will be completed during the terms of the appointees.

Sections 12 and 13 of the Inland Fisheries Act 2010 set out the processes by which the Board of Inland Fisheries Ireland is appointed. These processes are well-advanced and I expect to be in a position to appoint the new Board and Chair before end November.
