My Department has governance responsibility for Water Safety Ireland (WSI). WSI has statutory responsibility for the promotion of public awareness of water safety; advancement of education related to the prevention of accidents in water; instruction in water safety; and the establishment of national standards for lifeguards.

I am pleased to confirm that Water Safety Ireland will continue to support the voluntary marine rescue work of the Community Rescue Boats Ireland, including through the D4H contract for those who require it.
