"Whilst a long-term solution is still needed and welcomed, this will provide some immediate respite and improve safety for all boat users across Northern Ireland." Boaters can safely dispose of expired marine flares at three locations on 15 June 2024.
Boat owners are asked to bring any time-expired marine distress flares to a disposal event, organised by the Royal Yachting Association Northern Ireland and facilitated by the PSNI, on Saturday, June 15.
