179. Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment the reason Lough Corrib SAC is moving from having a harvestable quota of wild salmon in 2025 to full 'catch and release' angling for the 2026 season, considering his comments on 9 October 2025 stating that the Corrib catchment has a sizeable stock of wild salmon to meet its natural reproductive capacity and does not require supplementation with Cong hatchery stock; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
