Seafood Development Programme 2021-27

The Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine launched an initial public consultation on 5 January 2020 as part of the development of a new operational programme for the sustainable development of the seafood sector for the 2021-27 period.

The Programme will be developed in the context of the proposed EU Regulation on a European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund, which is presently being negotiated by the EU co-legislators with a view to enactment in the Autumn of 2020. The new operational programme will be co-funded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union.
