Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 May 2017
532. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will arrange for a review of harbour charges incurred by a person (details supplied) at a marina in County Kerry in view of the current impasse; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21549/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraDingle Fishery Harbour Centre is one of the six designated Fishery Harbour Centres which are owned, managed and maintained by my Department under Statute. The harbour charges referred to relate to mooring fees for the use of the marina, and these charges have been applied correctly.
I have been informed by my Department officials that vessel owners were notified of the works referred to in a timely manner. In this particular case, Department officials have been in correspondence with the individual concerned in an attempt to resolve agreeably any dispute regarding harbour dues. I have advised my officials to continue in their efforts to come to an amicable resolution of the outstanding harbour charges.
