108. Deputy Noel Grealish asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications his views on a matter (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44008/24]

As previously set out to the Deputy, Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI), in conjunction with my Department, is carrying out a review of relevant inland fisheries bye-laws in force for 10 years or more and their continued application. The Conservation of and Prohibition on Sale of Coarse fish Bye-Law No. 806 of 2006 and the Conservation of Pike Bye-Law No. 809 of 2006 are being examined as part of this extensive work programme.

Upon completion of this review which will take relevant legal acts of the European Union including the EU Habitats and Water Framework Directives into account, I will be in a position to consider any action in respect of these two bye-laws.
