Maritime Area Planning Bill 2021: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2021-12-14
============================================================

Alice-Mary Higgins (IND), National University of Ireland

The Minister of State will be aware there is consideration regarding the issues of rights of way and the foreshore. That area will be considered by another Department next year. I want to signal the issue of the nearshore and how it relates to access to the foreshore, which is a key consideration under the review of conveyancing legislation under the question of prescriptive and other rights of way. That area might require some consideration. It is an important area of overlap in terms of complementary review and legislation that may be coming in the spring.
