Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Mackerel Quota Allocation: Iasc Mara Teoranta

4:00 pm

Mr. Cathal Groonell:

That is where the Department and the officials come in. When one sees the actual licences they issue to the boats and the terms and conditions attached, it is very easy to sort out that situation with terms and conditions. In fairness, they are quite efficient in doing that. If there is a will to do it, it can be done. If there is not, it is quite easy to say it cannot be done legally but the public and coastal communities are the losers in that situation.
