Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 20 January 2026
819. Deputy Conor D. McGuinness asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason the total estimated sectoral economic investment spend on fisheries in the 2026 Revised Estimates has been cut by 14% in comparison to 2025. [4195/26]
View answerThe ‘Revised Estimates for Public Services 2026’ is prepared by the Department of Public Expenditure Infrastructure Public Service Reform and Digitalisation.
The ‘Sectoral Economic Investment’ for the Fisheries Sector section of that document includes a number of areas which are outside the remit of my Department such as the Maritime Area Regulatory Authority, Marine Research & Development, Maritime Safety & Regulations and Inland Fisheries Development and Tourism Angling.
Therefore I am not in a position to comment on the comparison with the 2025 estimates.
