Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs

Sustaining Viable Rural Communities: Discussion (Resumed)

2:15 pm

Mr. John D. Sullivan:

With regard to what Ms Parke has said, it is not the north versus the south with mackerel fishing. That is not the scenario at all. Reference was made to the 27 vessels and these boats are from Greencastle, Killybegs, Rossaveal, Dingle, Castletownbere, Baltimore, Kinsale and Crosshaven. The situation pertains all around the coast, it is not just a north or south scenario. We are not at all totally against any of the Killybegs fishermen.
