Dear Mr. Long,
I acknowledge receipt of your recent e-mail, re the above issue and note your concerns.
At the moment the "Amendment of 1998 Beach Bye Laws Governing Beaches at Seapoint, Killiney & Corbawn" is on public display and anyone can make a submission till the 28th September (I suggest you make a submission if you have not already done so to the Senior Executive Engineer, Culture, Community Development & Amenities Department, Level 3, County Hall, Marine Road, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin). Then a report based on the submissions received on the Beach Bye Laws will be presented to the Council at a Council meeting for them to pass (I will contact you when the date is confirmed). In the report the Council Officials could make a recommendation about the fishing. If the Council Official's do not make a recommendation I will be discussing with the Labour Group on the Council that we make an amendment to the Beach Bye Laws to reduce these proposed restrictions on fishing.
I shall forward you any information I may receive.
Should you have any query on the above please feel free to contact me.
Kind Regards
Cllr. Carrie Smyth.

You must take any fish you catch and are not allowed returns.
It is not a ban as such.

If its not a ban then what is it.....you cant fish for sport...because its banned.....if you pass a 30 hour test over a period of time you are allowed to fish for your table (not for other tables though) after getting a license and your not allowed to put any fish (even undersize) back into the water.

I thought all of the councillors would be voting on this and should therefore take an interest but I was obviously mistaken.
