"In the distant past, a constituent part of the work was in patrolling for poaching and for illegal net fishing, but those practices have subsided a lot in recent years"

"picturesque Aasleagh Falls in south Mayo had been leased to a staff member on an informal basis. The staff member had operated it as a guesthouse"

Another shambles of a public body, that'll be the end of the Atlantic Salmon then

Seems to be going on and on without much being sorted.
There's some fine committed people working for IFI. It's a shame to see their work caught up in this craic.
Some of the issues don't really seem like serious issues. The uninsured vehicles seems like poor management rather than anything underhand.
