PQ 697
697. Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the reason Irish freshwater catchments were never designated as 'cyprinid' under Article 2 of Council Directive 78/659/EEC, considering that his legacy department introduced S.I. No. 293/1988 - European Communities (Quality of Salmonid Waters) Regulations, under Council Directive 78/659/EEC, which designated waters as 'salmonid' in Ireland; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
