Written answers

My Department owns, manages and maintains the six State-owned Fishery Harbour Centres, located at Castletownbere, Dingle, Dunmore East, Howth, Killybegs and Ros An Mhíl. It also has responsibility for North Harbour Cape Clear, and a limited number of piers, lights and beacons in accordance with the 1902 ex-congested Districts Board piers, lights and Beacons Act.

Under its annual Fishery Harbour and Coastal Infrastructure Development Programme, my Department provides funding, subject to available Exchequer funding and overall national priorities, to assist Local Authorities in the development and repair of piers, harbours and slipways under their control. Responsibility for the maintenance and development of the Local Authority piers and harbours rest with that local authority in the first instance and its parent Department, the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government.

As part of the Government’s response to the damage caused by the storms of 2013 and 2014, designated storm repair funding was made available to Local Authorities in 2014 and 2015, a detailed breakdown of which is included in Tables 1, 2 and 3 below. Prior to 2014, specific funding was not allocated for storm repair of harbours for fisheries. My Department has allocated over €1.3m to Local Authorities for storm repair works in 2016, details of which are included in Table 4 below.
