Illegal disposal of diseased salmon

Summary

Molloy gave notice of an Adjournment matter about diseased farmed salmon dumped near waterways flowing into Lough Corrib and asked what action was being taken; the Ceann Comhairle said he would contact him.

I wish to give notice of my intention to raise on the Adjournment a question to the Minister for the Marine related to the imminent threat to fish life in the western lakes from illegal dumping of large quantities of diseased salmon from fish farms along the west coast, with special reference to the most recent incident which occurred only some hours ago at Galway Corporation refuse dump at the Curragh line which is located adjacent to water courses which flow directly into Lough Corrib which is only some hundreds of yards away from the dump, and to ask him what action he is taking in this matter.

I will communicate with Deputy Molloy in respect of that matter.
