My Department published one Bill in 1993 and two Bills in 1996.
Bills to amend the Foyle Fisheries Act, 1952, and the Oil Pollution of the Sea (Civil Liability and Compensation) Act, 1988, and a Bill in relation to the powers of the Commissioners of Irish Lights with respect to the provision of navigational aids, are in preparation. They will be published as soon as drafting and other necessary procedures permit.
