Answer
While I recognise the benefits that the Magilligan to Greencastle Ferry service brings to local communities and tourism in general during its summer operation, my Department holds no statutory powers in relation to this ferry service. My Department, therefore, has no operational responsibility for the privately-owned Magilligan-Greencastle ferry service.
