106. To ask the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment the reason, given that the initial public consultation on the proposed Waterford Fisheries District, (River Barrow) Angling Limitations during Salmon Spawning Run Bye-Law (No. 1011) 2024, signed on 17 September this year, ran for a two-week period ending on 20 August 2019, it took five years for a basic fisheries bye-law to come to fruition; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Following the initial public consultation process on the proposed Waterford Fisheries District, (River Barrow) Angling Limitations during Salmon Spawning Run Bye-Law (No. 1011) 2024, Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) further considered and reviewed the position in respect of this Bye-Law in terms of evidence based advice and recommendations that it wished to submit to the Department.

On receipt of this in addition to the revised Appropriate Assessment Screening earlier this year, the draft Bye-law was presented for my approval and made thereafter.
