Annual Report 2013: Bord Iascaigh Mhara

Mr. Donal Buckley:

I did not say they were just in the pelagic sector. I said there were some jobs in the pelagic area. I agree the pelagic area is a commodity area, but there are also shellfish communities and whitefish activity. We look at the overall jobs in the Killybegs hinterland and get our numbers there. We have gone out to the companies and verified numbers with our teams on the ground and there are approximately 70 to 75 jobs.
