asked the Minister for Lands and Fisheries if he will state when the Report on the Sea and Inland Fisheries for the years 1929 and 1930 will be published.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Sea and Inland Fisheries Report.
The report is in course of preparation, but complete statistical data for 1930 have not yet been received from all the smaller outlying points of the coast.
Is the Minister aware that according to Section 112 of the Fisheries (Ireland) Act, 1842, the Minister is bound within a period of three weeks after 31st January to present these reports to the Dáil?
No.
Will the Minister consider the advisability of issuing the reports separately—that is, a separate report in regard to sea fisheries and a separate report in regard to inland fisheries? It might expedite matters.
We expect to have the data within a few months and to have the report in three months.
