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

Sustaining Viable Rural Communities: Discussion (Resumed)

2:15 pm

Ms Norah Parke:

As far as I know the National Inshore Fisheries Forum has been making quite a lot of representation about the spurdogs. I just am not sure if any headway has been made.

There is a quota of 53 tonnes to avoid somebody being criminalised for accidentally catching them. I cannot remember what headway the National Inland Fisheries Forum made on it, but I know it has been making representations on the issue.
