Oireachtas HLGH Committee Meeting – WI opening statement Jul 9 2024
Éanna Rowe of Waterways Ireland outlined the next steps in the Bye Law process at the Oireachtas Meeting on July 9 2024.
“The process for the by-laws is laid out in the primary legislation.
The next step is to send them to the Department for the consideration of and signing into law by the Minister. However, the Department has suggested to us that we need to further consider the price fees and the price increases in the context of the wider perspective, including inflationary pressures in the economy, price pressures in the leisure and tourism sectors and the concerns reflected in the 1799 submissions.
That process has only just begun within Waterways Ireland. We are a while off the point where we will be forwarding the drafts to the Department.”
