What is the policy in regard to foreign vessels landing whitefish here for processing. I have heard some anecdotal stories that this is impacting on the prices Irish vessels can get for whitefish because they do not have a quota that can guarantee supply to processors. Has any assessment been made of whether there is any basis to this or whether there has been a significant impact in regard to prices Irish vessels can get when competing with vessels that have far bigger quotas and can guarantee supply?
