Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 22 November 2023
33. Deputy Anne Rabbitte asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications the options available for funding for fishing stands along the river Shannon; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [51241/23]
View answerThe funding allocation provided to Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) by my Department is not generally disaggregated for individual specific purposes such as those raised by the Deputy.
The allocation of such resources towards development and other functions, related to fisheries, under, for instance, the National Strategy for Angling Development and other funding programmes, is an operational matter for IFI in which neither I nor my Department have any function.
IFI has established a specific email address for queries from Oireachtas members so that queries can be addressed promptly, in line with IFI’s objective to deliver services to the highest standards. The email address is oireachtas@fisheriesireland.ie.
