The Minister for the Marine, Mr Ahern, has ordered the Irish Coast Guard to begin monitoring controversial new legislation on compulsory lifejacket use.

The Irish Underwater Council is seeking an exemption from the proposed new compulsory lifejacket rules for divers travelling to and from dive sites.
