My Department owns, operates and maintains six designated State-owned Fishery Harbour Centres, located at Castletownbere, Dingle, Dunmore East, Howth, Killybegs and Ros An Mhíl under statute. Between 2020 and 2023 (inclusive), €133.7 million of capital funding was allocated to these harbours under the annual Fishery Harbour and Coastal Infrastructure Development Programme.
Funding of €32.6 million was allocated for capital projects in the six Fishery Harbour Centres as part of the 2020 Programme prior to the formation of the Government in June 2020 and has been included for completeness. Attached table details the total allocations to each Fishery Harbour Centre for the years 2020 to 2023 (Inclusive).
Of the €133.7 million €110.7 million was spent as construction delays arose in 2020 and 2021 due to Covid restrictions.
