Question:

284 Cecilia Keaveney asked the Minister for the Marine the consultation, if any, which took place in relation to changes of the Foyle area in the 1970s. [7628/97]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 282, 283 and 284 together.

The statutory definition of the Foyle Area has not altered from that laid down in the Foyle Fisheries Act, 1952, where it is defined as meaning the Londonderry District originally created by Order in 1855.
