Pearse Doherty
Question:524. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he is aware of the recent introduction of restricted access hours for those requiring the use of a syncrolift operated by his Department at Killybegs Harbour, County Donegal; if this limits access to the device to traditional office hours and only when authorised personnel are present; if he is aware of claims that such restrictions are unworkable given that such a device may only be deployed during times when favourable tidal conditions are present; if he is further aware of the adverse impact which these measures are having on the various industries operating within the region which make use of the device for fleet maintenance; his plans to reconsider these measures and lift these new restrictions; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
