Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 July 2004
320 Mr. Grealish asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources the reason a licence to pick oysters has not been granted to a person (details supplied) in County Galway; if he will liaise with the Western Fisheries Board with a view to granting this person a licence to pick oysters; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20040/04]
Amharc ar fhreagra:I am advised by the chief executive officer of the Western Regional Fisheries Board that the matter at issue in this case arises because the methodology proposed by the applicant does not comply with the statutory requirements laid down in the Fisheries Acts governing the gathering of oysters. I have asked the chief executive officer to ensure that the applicant is fully apprised of the appropriate methodology required under these legislative provisions.
