The matter was raised in the Dáil by Galway West TD Mairead Farrell, who outlined how the service to the island has proved extremely unreliable in recent times.

Last year, the Department acknowledged issues and stated it's due to a build up of sand that makes accessing the pier difficult during certain conditions.
