The Marine Institute does not carry out surveys of salmon stocks around the coast. The status of salmon stocks in Ireland is assessed and reported by the Standing Scientific Committee for Salmon (SSCS) which provides annual stock assessment and catch advice on numbers of fish to Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI), which falls within the remit of the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources. Marine Institute scientists participate on the SSCS.
