Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 December 2025
216. Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment if the proposed Western Lakes Management Plan (WLMP) facilitates further promotion of coarse angling on Lough Corrib SAC and its catchment; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [72490/25]
View answerI have been advised by Inland Fisheries Ireland that the promotion of angling is outside the proposed Western Lakes Management Plan. While the plan includes management options for all fish species that are present, it is not an angling promotion plan. Anglers will, however, play an important role as stakeholders in the implementation and success of the plan.
