Description edit
The Shannon Regional Fisheries Board’s mission is To " conserve the inland fisheries and sea angling resources of the Region in its own right and to manage, restore, enhance and promote it in a sustainable manner for the benefit of our local communities and the national good"
The Shannon Regional Fisheries Board is the competent fisheries authority for the inland fisheries and sea angling resource of the Shannon Catchment and much of the Mid-West Region. Included in its area are the River Feale Catchment in North Kerry and the rivers of County Clare flowing westward towards the Atlantic. The Board’s Coastal boundaries stretch from Kerry Head to Hags Head in Co. Clare.
The Board was established under the Fisheries Act 1980 and was given additional responsibilities under the Fisheries Act 1999. The Board operates under the auspices of the Department of the Marine & Natural Resources which has overall policy responsibility for the conservation, management, regulation and development of the Inland Fisheries resource. The Board has responsibility for policy advice, co-ordination and implementation. The Board of 22 members is informed and has its decisions implemented by the Chief Executive Officer. The Headquarters of the Board is in Limerick, while the majority of its resources are located in 9 local areas where most of the implementation work is carried out.
