Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 17 January 2024
1253. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if camper vans are allowed park at fishery port car parks as long as they are not used as accommodation while parked there; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [1251/24]
View answerMy Department, in consultation with the three Island Committees, agreed to provide parking permits to permanent residents of the Aran Islands and when the terms and conditions of the parking permit application process were decided, vehicles taxed as ‘Motor Caravan’ were not included as eligible under this process.
The exclusion of vehicles taxed as ‘Motor Caravan’ from the permit application process reflects the general policy across all harbours not to permit live-aboard vehicles such as caravans, campervans and motor homes in harbour car parks.
