104. To ask the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment when it is expected that marine area consents will be decided on by Marine Area Regulatory Authority, given that the Oireachtas has now approved the south coast designated maritime area plan; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Maritime Area Regulatory Authority (MARA) is an independent corporate entity having full responsibility under law for the performance of its functions, including assessment processes in respect of maritime area consents.
Arrangements have been put in place by MARA to facilitate the provision of information directly to members of the Oireachtas. This provides a speedy, efficient and cost-effective system to address queries which are proper for the agency.
In that context, I would ask you to refer your query directly to MARA at the email provided for Oireachtas queries: oireachtas@mara.gov.ie
